Description

When eighteen-year-old Philippa Palfrey begins searching for her biological family, she expects answers about her origins—but discovers a past shaped by crime, guilt, and enduring grief. As she draws closer to the parents she never knew, Philippa must confront the complicated bonds of blood, adoption, and loyalty, while another generation struggles to live with the consequences of an irrevocable act. Both a tense family drama and a searching psychological novel, the story explores revenge, forgiveness, identity, and the possibility of redemption. Its measured, perceptive style brings emotional depth to a haunting examination of how the past can define—and transform—the present.
