Left at the YMCA the day she was born, Shannon has bounced around the foster system with well-intentioned and abusive results until she is taken in by a single mother, Miranda, with a daughter of her own. Interwoven with the story of Shannon's childhood is the story of her parents and how she came to be abandoned. A touching story about family and personal identity.
