Tolan stumbles upon a file on her mother’s computer, unraveling disturbing questions about her past. Simultaneously, her best friend transitions from confidante to secret girlfriend. Overnight, Tolan’s understanding of herself and her family undergoes a seismic shift, compelling her to risk her closest relationships in pursuit of answers.
