Our past often dictates who we are today and who we will be in the future. What happens when your origin story is a mystery?
We first meet Nathan Jameson as a four-year-old boy whose father abandons him at the customer service / Lost & Found counter of an A&P grocery store. Twenty-nine years later, after brutal years in foster care, Jameson now owns a bookstore in Southern New Jersey and an investigation business named Lost & Found Investigations.
With his bookstore assistant manager and co-owner of the Investigations business, Heather Sandberg, Jameson takes on a new case involving a young woman, Victoria Anderson, whose grandmother just passed away. Anderson, like Jameson, never knew her parents because they died in a single-engine plane crash in 1999. Now, Anderson is being followed; her home was searched, as was that of her grandmother's home, and she enlists the help of Nathan and Heather.
What they soon discover is that her grandmother is not related to her; a Russian FSB agent thinks Anderson has four million dollars that belong to him and is seeking revenge for the death of his parents 25 years ago.
Nathan and Heather then investigate Victoria's mysterious parents, the reason why a neighbor posed as Victoria's grandmother, and why the Russian FSB, the CIA, and the FBI are following her.
While Nathan and Heather investigate, we discover that a secretive financial group known only as The Enterprise has been watching, protecting, and even financially assisting Nathan without his knowledge. We also meet Rose Zhang, who runs the Hug In A Mug coffee shop inside the bookstore, Mexican immigrants Enrique Mendez and his family, who own Vincenzo's Pizza next to the bookstore, and Realtor Kirsten Petrocelli, whose sexually charged relationship with Nathan hides a dark secret.
