Woven together; intertwined
In 1966, a misunderstanding led to social services to be called regarding possible child neglect by the Curtis parents. Their children, 7 year old Darry, 3 year old Sodapop, and one year old Pony, were taken and placed in the custody of a foster family. For a month the family stayed separated, until the parents were finally able to clear up the misunderstanding and have their children return home. Darry and Sodapop were returned, but the youngest Curtis vanished. Social services claimed to have no clue where the baby could be and Pony Miragold Curtis has been just a face on a missing persons report for 13 years.

In 1979, a 14 year old girl named Faith Blake was murdered by the same man who had taken her soulmates. She received one last phone call, one that revealed devastating secrets and a promise of hope. Her adoptive mother explains that Faith was not an unwanted child thrown into foster care, but that she was loved and grieved by her family. With the last words of love and encouragement, Faith returns to her childhood bedroom, a few days before her first soulmate is taken. This time, she will do whatever it takes to keep those she loves safe. Faith Blake lives again, but this time with a forgotten family and an old name ingrained in her heart, Pony Curtis.
