Twelve-year-old Frankie feels restless, isolated, and desperate to belong to something larger than herself. When she learns that her older brother is getting married, she imagines the wedding as a way out of her loneliness and becomes increasingly determined to join the newlyweds' future. Conversations with Berenice and her young cousin John Henry frame a sensitive coming-of-age story about adolescence, identity, family, and the painful limits of belonging.
