Description
When her teenage daughter, who believes she was born in Mexico and legally adopted, discovers the truth, Kate accompanies her back to Guatemala, where they both confront the damage done by years of dangerous yet necessary deceptions. Sofia, a fifteen-year-old soccer star living in New England, believes she was born in Mexico and legally adopted by Kate Malloy. But a posthumous letter from her stepfather tells Sofia a story of civil unrest and bloodshed, death-defying heroism and child-smuggling, harrowing sacrifice and desperate decisions. Knowing Sofia's trust in her is shattered, Kate decides to accompany Sofia back to Guatemala, to confront the damage done by years of dangerous yet necessary deceptions.
