One summer morning, Jenny takes a little girl from the back seat of a car, telling herself and her boyfriend Gene she was saving her. After learning the girl is a foster child, Jenny decides to raise the girl, whom she names Margaret, as her own. Their life as a family is complicated by Jenny's erratic behavior as well as Gene's frequent absences and unfulfilled promises. Despite this, Margaret forms a strong bond with both of them, a bond that is tested when Margaret learns about her abduction. At fifteen, Margaret leaves home to seek answers about who she is and where she truly belongs. Told from both Jenny and Margaret's perspectives, this is a story of commitment, survival, and redemption.
