Harper never expects her Uber driver to recognize her mom’s old watch. But when the driver Ethan starts revealing secrets from the past, Harper’s world begins to unravel. What he says next will change everything Harper knows about her mom. Can Harper handle the shocking truth that’s about to be uncovered?

I was running late for Emily’s birthday party downtown. Frantically, I did my hair and makeup, grabbed my phone, and called an Uber. The driver’s name was Ethan, and he’d be here in five minutes. As I rushed to get ready, I made sure to wear Mom’s watch, a delicate silver piece that always brought me luck.

When Ethan arrived, he greeted me with a friendly smile. During the ride, he glanced at my watch and asked if my mom was Janet Wilkerson. Shocked, I confirmed. He revealed he had given the watch to my mom in college, and that she had stolen it from him. Ethan’s revelations about my mom’s past as a thief and her relationship with my dad left me reeling. My world turned upside down, and I knew I needed answers from my mom.
