Description
When Margot Lee discovers her Korean immigrant mother, Mina, dead in their Los Angeles home, she returns to Koreatown seeking answers—and finds herself confronting the painful distance that had grown between them. As Margot pieces together Mina’s life, the story moves between mother and daughter, revealing the sacrifices, secrets, and unrealized dreams shaped by immigration and the pursuit of belonging. Set against the vibrant yet complicated world of Los Angeles, this emotionally resonant novel explores family, identity, grief, racism, and the bonds that endure across generations. It is a poignant portrait of a mother and daughter learning to understand one another, even when time and circumstance seem to make reconciliation impossible.
