Sophie believed her childhood nightmares were safely behind her when she married and moved from France to the US--but when her mother, Marcelle, calls her to her deathbed and asks her to honor one final request ("Find Pourrette!"), Sophie can't refuse. Marcelle, who never knew her father, has carried the Pourrette name--along with the shame of illegitimacy--her whole life; now it's up to Sophie to scour that stain from her family's past. Kate, Sophie's friend, who gave up her illegitimate child for adoption during wartime, finds herself awash in her own shame when her now-thirty-year-old daughter reappears in her life--and she jumps at the opportunity to help Sophie search for her grandfather in France.
