"There is the family you are born into and the family that grows around you."

In 1959, Margo's parents break their promise, leaving her behind for another archaeological dig. She is sent to California to spend her junior year with a great uncle she's only met once. Her parent's interests remain buried in ancient ruins, but Margo begins to discover herself beneath a lifetime of family secrets. For the first time, she has a close circle of friends, a budding romance, and an academic future. But a struggle between herself, the past, and her parents tests all she has learned.

Shelley Reece makes the "cast" come to life. You will laugh and cry.
