Description

When Sylvie Lee travels from New York to the Netherlands to care for her terminally ill grandmother, she vanishes without a trace. Her younger sister, Amy, sets out to discover what happened, crossing borders and confronting long-buried family secrets along the way. Moving between generations, cultures, and contrasting perspectives, the novel explores identity, immigration, sisterhood, belonging, and the complicated ways love can shape a family. Richly atmospheric and emotionally layered, it is a compelling portrait of the mysteries people keep—and the truths that ultimately bind them together.
