In Kinship, Georgia, a 15-year-old Pert is aching for something more than the tiny community she’s always known. Her circle of trailer park neighbors and her supportive mother and older brother aren’t enough for Pert; she is lonesome for the father she has never met. But when Pert’s Daddy suddenly returns to Kinship and sets her neighborhood spinning, Pert is forced to reassess her concepts of home, loyalty, family, and kin.
