Following her acclaimed debut, Alison Hammer presents a poignant exploration of family and identity. When Paige Meyer receives an email revealing her father is a man she never knew, she suspects a mistake. As she investigates her mother's past and reflects on her feelings of being the odd one in her family, Paige begins to question her entire upbringing. This revelation prompts her to reconsider her memories of her father, whom she idolized and still mourns. In 1975, Betsy Kaplan, Paige's mother, is a straight-laced sophomore at the University of Kansas. Disappointed by her safe boyfriend, she seeks more excitement in her life. This leads her to Andy Abrams, the campus golden boy with a potentially devastating secret. After a night together results in unexpected consequences, Betsy resolves to bury the truth and create a stable life for her unborn child, no matter the cost. When Paige struggles to get answers from her mother, she turns to the only other person present that night. As she uncovers the truth, her perception of her distant mother shifts, revealing Betsy as a woman faced with an impossible choice. The dual timelines of this narrative explore identity and how our self-definition evolves through life experiences, raising questions about connection and understanding in familial relationships.
