Whether it's at school, where she's the only black girl, or at home with her adoptive white parents, Lahni feels out of place. As if being an outsider weren't enough, a creepy boy starts pestering Lahni, and her parents announce they're getting a divorce. Lahni's not sure she can cope, especially with one more worry piled on: participating in a singing competition. Then Lahni joins a choir to practice for the contest and finally finds a place where she belongs.
