Josephine is Girl One, the first of nine Miracle Babies conceived without male DNA on an experimental commune known as the Homestead. The Girls were raised in the shadow of controversy until a devastating fire at Homestead left the survivors scattered across the US. Years later, upon learning that her mother has gone missing, Josie tracks down the only people who might help: her estranged sisters. A tale of love, ambition, power, and the extraordinary bonds of sisterhood.
