Lucy—single, childless, in her thirties—studies insects and ecosystems, in part to make sense of human behavior. That insight is shattered when her mother dies prematurely, her sister claims the California family home, and Lucy learns that her biological father is apparently a Costa Rican they knew when the family spent summers in the coastal village of Palmita.
