Life is good for Tasia: close friends, supportive family, and a spot on her school football team. But when she catches her mamma hiding a box filled with mementos from Tasia’s life, including a birth certificate with a blank paternity line and a photo of her mom in the arms of some white dude, her identity is suddenly called into question. Turns out, the man she always thought was her father isn’t and she’s bi-racial. Determined to unravel the lies that have overtaken her life, Tasia sets off on a path of discovery, and finds that forgiveness is more than an 11-letter word.
