It is the year 1939. Twelve-year-old Rill Foss and her younger siblings live a carefree life on the Mississippi. But everything changes when their father has to take their mother to the hospital – and strange strangers knock on the door, dragging the siblings off to a cruel orphanage. Rill will have to find a way to protect herself and her loved ones, but she won't be able to close her eyes to the harsh truth for long. In the present, a young successful prosecutor returns to help her parents with home repairs and accidentally uncovers traces of an ancient family secret that could lead to both damnation and redemption... Lisa Wingate tells a story inspired by the notorious scandal of the organized involuntary sale of children from poor families to wealthy adoptive parents, which shook all of America.
