When twelve-year-old Edie discovers a box in her family's attic filled with photos and letters written by a woman named Edith Graham, she wonders if the woman is related to her mother, a northwest tribe Native American who was adopted by a white family. Discouraged that her parents refuse to answer her questions, Edie sets off on a quest to discover more about her ancestral heritage and whether it is linked to the woman from the box.
