Summary
When Emma Swan was 18, it wasn't the best time to raise a baby. She was in juvie, the best foster mother she ever had died suddenly, and that jerk Neal let her take the fall for their mistake. So the best thing she could do was let baby Swan be put up for adoption.
Ten years later, after a semi-decent career as a bail bondsperson, Emma is looking for clues to make sure that letting baby Swan go was the right decision. There isn't much she can find out (legally) because it was a closed adoption, but the leads brought her to a small town hidden in Maine, where she got a job as a deputy sheriff.
Regina is the fifth generation embalming in the basement of Mills & Sons, a family funeral home operating for over 80 years. Her funerals are orderly, quiet, and families usually have no complaints about her work, to which she dedicates herself with a professional passion. But it wasn't always this way. There are days in Director Mills's past that left a deep and permanent mark. Her greatest joy: little Henry, the precious baby boy she adopted when he was three months old.
An administrative error that brought Deputy Swan to the foyer of the town's only funeral home could change these two women's lives forever.
