Coming to the US to study, Ayesha is swept up in a romance with Suresh - an Indian boy who reminds her of home. Months away from starting university, she falls pregnant and makes the decision to hide her pregnancy and put her daughter up for adoption, before returning to India. Years later, 17-year-old Mira Fuller-Jensen has had a comfortable childhood but has never felt like she fit in their majority white community. All she knows is that her mums adopted her and that her biological mother was a student who went back to India. When she comes across letters addressed to her from her birth mother, she sees a way to finally capture that feeling of belonging. Her mother writes that if Mira can forgive her for having to give her up, she should find a way to travel to India for her 18th birthday and meet her. Mira knows she'll always regret it if she doesn't go. But is she actually ready for what she will learn?
