When Cameron was fifteen, Sonia was her best friend. No one could come between them. Sonia was in desperate need of a friend and understanding as her relationship with her French-teaching mother was unconscionable. During college, Sonia sleeps with Cameron's boyfriend, in search of comfort to assuage the grief caused by her father's death. The incident destroyed their friendship and Cameron's relationship with her boyfriend. Now 29, a research assistant with no meaningful ties to anyone except her boss - noted historian, Oliver Doucet, she is charged upon on his death to deliver a package from him to Sonia. They had argued when she had received an invitation to Sonia's wedding, and Cameron refused to respond. Cameron undertakes a journey to deliver the package - a journey that will forever change her life and illustrates the indomitability of love and friendship.
"If hatred can negate us, love can create us."
"To love someone means to forever and over and over and over forgive the pain."
"A person is not a suitcase with a finite number of items to unpack. A person is a world."
