A vivid reimagining of the life and legacy of Marilyn Monroe: "A massive, magnetic story by a major American novelist writing at the peak of his powers" (San Francisco Chronicle).
When eighteen-year-old Normalyn discovers a letter asserting that Marilyn Monroe was her true mother, she travels from Texas to Los Angeles to uncover the truth . . . and ventures deep into a maze of untold Hollywood history.
