From the publisher
A little white lie. A dream in the making. One last chance to get it right.
All Bianca Thompson wants is to make documentaries. Real life, caught on film. But photocopying movie scripts is the closest she’s ever come to the director’s seat. When she learns she’s a finalist for a prestigious filmmaking grant, she has one chance to impress the judges.
Her pitch? A behind-the-scenes documentary about Brazil’s first all-female samba school, the president and founder of which is Bianca’s aunt, Sonia Almeida Gonçalves. The catch? Bianca doesn’t speak a lick of Portuguese. She’s never set foot in Brazil. And she’s never even met her aunt.
When Bianca finds a revealing letter from her aunt to her late mother,
she’s caught between uncovering the truth and finally making a name for herself. Her choice could cost Bianca her integrity . . . or open up her whole world.
