Jessie Belle Church hates her old coot of a boss for making her go on a stupid Ancestry Quest news assignment. After all, the thirty-year-old newscaster is used to attending art gallery openings with her filthy rich boyfriend, not schlepping through the jungle with a gorilla of a cameraman. But there she is anyway, traipsing through Africa and Europe to follow the ancestry trail left by her DNA. However, when she's visited each night by a different spirit of her female forebears, reliving the most exciting and terrifying events of their common yet extraordinary lives, Jessie Belle begins to appreciate all that transpired in the past to give her the privileged life that she has today. And, even more shocking, she discovers just how tame and tantalizing that animal of a cameraman can be. She might become the true Jessie Belle, after all.
