One lady just wants to know the truth about who she truly is in this spine-tingling thriller written by the bestselling writers of Spare Room. However, she is not the only one observing.
Eva, a mixed-race lady, was adopted when she was eight years old, and for the last twenty years, Cherry and Carlton "Sugar" McNeil have been the only parents she has ever needed or desired. But when Cherry's passing and her own job suspension deliver her a double blow, Eva thinks it's time to find out who she was before she was theirs.
Eva defies Sugar's advise and registers with a DNA database in the hopes of finding a match that would reveal her true identity. When a good hit occurs, she's thrilled to hear that there are family members who could have the answer. But as Eva comes closer to learning the truth about her background, it seems like someone is attempting to thwart her efforts to do so.
Eva is lured into a harsh and dark aspect of society as she keeps digging—where black women vanish silently. No search teams, no names wiped from history, no frantic appeals for their return. Someone did attempt to save Eva from all of this once. Someone wished for her to have a better life. Has she gone too far to be saved again now that she has destroyed the façade of her life?
