Description
Edie has always known that her mother was adopted by a white couple. She's never been sure about her own Native American heritage, but she's certain her family doesn't have any answers to these questions. That is, until the day when she and her friends discover a hidden box in the attic - a box full of letters signed "Love, Edith," and photos of a woman who looks just like her. The discovery sets off a flurry of new questions about this mysterious woman who shares Edie's name. Could she be part of the Native family that Edie never knew about? If so, how can she trust her parents to tell her the truth now? As Edie delves deeper into her family's secrets, she uncovers a complex web of identity and belonging. With each new revelation, she must confront the difficult choices between loyalty to her family and the pursuit of her own Native American heritage.
