And finally, Sophia, the baby of the family, is sure her ability to make people laugh is her legacy. As the four girls grow into women they discover that Fermina's gifts come with complicated strings and what once seemed simple can confuse over time. Together they learn the truth about their mysterious caretaker, her legacy and the family secret that was nearly lost forever in the New Mexican desert...
