Summary:"Kem just wants to enjoy the company of her newborn daughter, but she can't say no when her best friend Jaycel requests her company at the funeral of old lady Lovegrace. At first, she's distracted by an unexpected reunion with her childhood friends, and the presence of Rika Nonesuch, professional thief-and her girlfriend.
