As the story unfolds, Irene, a light-skinned Black woman who has been living as a Black person her entire life, reconnects with Clare, a childhood friend who has been passing as a white woman. As Irene becomes more entangled in Clare's world, she begins to question her own identity and the limitations imposed on her by society.
Their relationship becomes increasingly complicated as Irene's husband remains unaware of Clare's true heritage, even as Clare's fascination with passing becomes more pronounced.
