Paloma thought her perfect life would begin once she was adopted and made it to America  but
she's about to find out that no matter how far you run  your past always catches up to you…
Ever since she was adopted from a Sri Lankan orphanage  Paloma has had the best of
everything-schools  money  and parents so perfect that she fears she'll never live up to them.
Now at thirty years old and recently cut off from her parents' funds  she decides to sublet the
second bedroom of her overpriced San Francisco apartment to Arun  who recently moved from
India. Paloma has to admit  it feels good helping someone find their way in America-that is
until Arun discovers Paloma's darkest secret  one that could jeopardize her own fragile place
in this country. Before Paloma can pay Arun off  she finds him face down in a pool of blood.
She flees the apartment but by the time the police arrive  there's no body-and no evidence that
Arun ever even existed in the first place. Paloma is terrified this is all somehow tangled up
in the desperate actions she took to escape Sri Lanka so many years ago. Did Paloma's secret
die with Arun or is she now in greater danger than ever before?
