It was just an average neighborhood Christmas party until she saw the card on the mantle. It had a red background and holly in the corner... and a boy with her dead son's eyes sitting on Santa's lap. The boy on the Christmas card has turned Rae Baxter's world upside down. From the moment she sees him, she is convinced the toddler is her grandchild. Desperate for a piece of her child back after four years of consuming grief, Rae will stop at nothing for answers. No matter the cost to her or anyone else, she is determined to discover the truth. Who is the boy and is Rae's son his father? Her search for answers leads her to Rebecca Malone, the mother of the boy. Rae's presence threatens the closely guarded secret the harried single mother is determined to take to her grave. As her anxiety mounts about the pending DNA test results and what they could reveal, Rebecca travels to visit her standoffish, cold mother, Bernie. The trip turns into an extended stay when Rebecca discovers she's not the only one with something to hide. Bernie has been keeping a secret of her own, one that Rebecca must now stay and handle. Rae and Rebecca's lives are altered forever when the DNA test results are revealed, setting into motion a series of events that tests the bonds of marriage, family and trust. Together, the women must navigate a new path, paved by loss and love.
