Emily Lyons has been laid off from her investigative reporting job and finds herself at loose ends. Into that void steps someone she thought she'd never hear from again, her estranged father --- and he needs her help. Emily's not much interested in helping her deadbeat dad, but he wants her to help him track down his own father, who disappeared after the war. Despite her misgivings, Emily is hungry for roots and family, so she begins to dig and uncovers a fascinating era in American history.
