Summary
In need of a job with decent benefits, former self-employed cleaner Mia has just started work at the zoo. There she meets Kevin, the seemingly moody head of maintenance. His warm to cold behavior leaves her a little confused, but she has so many quirks of her own that she's not one to judge.
Slowly she and Kevin become friends, though Mia harbors romantic feelings for him. Eventually she learns that Kevin has DID and the man she is falling in love with is Dennis, an alter in his system. Over time, she develops romantic relationships with some of his alters and friendships with the others.
While getting to know each other, they also befriend Casey Cooke, a regular visitor at the zoo who is hiding a terrible secret. From past experience, Kevin surmises what Casey is going through. He and Mia swear to do whatever it takes to help her, and the three discover that being part of a family has less to do with blood than with actual caring.
