“Don’t you think someone might miss him—that man we found?” Meredith asked. “He must have a family, someone who wonders day after day where he is and whether he’s safe and why he left. I know what that’s like to wait and wait for someone who never comes home.”

Gale gaped at her.

Meredith said, “Someone needs to know he’s never coming home.”

***

In the summer of 92, Gale and Meredith find the body of a dead black man in the river of their all-white hometown. They go for help, but when the search doesn't turn up a body, Meredith's father, the police chief, accuses them of making it all up. That night, Gale runs away from home, turning Meredith's whole world inside out.

Thirteen years later, Meredith finds Gale's picture in a magazine. Desperate to make sense of her life, she tracks him down and invokes a childhood promise that will lead them back home.
