Kaylee rushed outside, her hands shaking as she read the address. It was in the town where Amanda’s biological mother lived, a place Amanda had always been curious about but had never visited. The pieces were falling into place. Amanda must have decided to seek out her biological mother.

“Yes, she was here,” the woman said softly. “She came looking for answers. I tried to help, but she left. She didn’t say where she was going.”
