For most of his life, Isaiah believed the small Minneapolis duplex held the only history he could trust. It was where he grew up, where his father made Sunday pancakes, where he came back after his divorce, and where he assumed he would always have a place to land.

Then one ordinary piece of mail arrived with a name he never expected to see.
