Résumé :

When she's called back home, will a trial unravel everything she's worked so hard to build?

Olivia Jackson is ready for a fresh start. Carrying guilt over not turning in her ex for assault, the half-Black nineteen-year-old still struggles to understand where she fits in. But when her class is assigned a sociology project, she's forced to confront her past... and the biggest identity crisis of her life.

Embarking on a quest to uncover the truth about her roots, Olivia discovers the facts are more complicated than she thought. And when she's pressured to return home to appear as a key witness, she faces a collision of history that could destroy her carefully constructed sense of self.

Will revisiting the wreckage she left behind make her whole... or turn into a world of pain?
