In 1948, while her mother is off making yet another movie, fourteen-year-old Allison O'Brian makes her way from New York to Oregon to see the grandfather she has never met and to learn what she can about her supposedly dead father.
Fourteen-year-old Allison finds herself the center of a custody battle between her glamorous, but neglectful, movie star mother and her long-absent artist father who wants her to live with him in a small Oregon town.
