Ridley Jones’s quiet life explodes into public view when she saves a child from being hit by a car in Manhattan. Media coverage makes her a minor celebrity for a few days, which brings an unwelcome surprise.
A mysterious package delivered to her door suggests that everything she believes about her family and her past is a lie. The sender claims to be her father.
Her parents—or at least the people who have always claimed to be her parents—dismiss everything as a hoax. Ridley wants to believe them, but something bothers her. Her brother, now addicted to drugs and living on the streets, seems to know something else.
Not knowing what to do, she confides in the handsome new neighbor in her building. Jake seems willing to help her investigate the mysterious claim. Perhaps a little too willing.
Is anyone around Ridley telling the truth—or are they just all beautiful lies?
