Ruth adopted her daughter about 18 years ago. Living alone after leaving home, Ruth found herself pregnant, thanking the innocence of one night and the compulsory behavior she believed. She has no conditions to raise her children, she is only a child. She named the baby Heather and gave her to her. Since then, she has begun to know where her little girl is.
Hiring a private investigator is the first step. He found her. Or at least, he found her adoptive family. Heather recently escaped. An 18-year-old girl appeared on the road again. Ruth only knew that Heather would eventually be like her... lost, confused and pregnant. Ruth knew she knew where Heather might have been and began to save her daughter. Tracing her path as a runaway, Ruth revisited Rte's highway exit ramp. 80 across Pennsylvania, facing the shadows of her own experiences. Staying in the bushes on the hard ground at night, stay ahead of the creeps and the police. Will Ruth catch up with Heather before it is too late? Did Heather really follow her mother's footsteps on the highway and hide in New York City?
The trip and memory triggered Ruth's emotional reaction, and she could not escape her husband. Jack knew nothing about Heather, and the truth would put him on a path of distrust, despair and mourning, because he thought his marriage had been lost. Ruth confided to her cleaning lady, an 18-year-old girl, so much that she was eager to find her daughter who was out of control before any terrible things happened. Kim had her own problems, pregnant and unmarried, and she and Ruth formed a bond of common pain.
Did the Thanksgiving miracle really happen? Ruth will find her lost daughter. If she does, will Heather hate her to give up her? Will Kim keep her child, or will she make a different choice that might bother her life? Will Jack find a way to forgive Ruth to hide such a large part of her life, is it possible for him to find his trust in her again? Will private investigators track Heather before adopting a family?
