Description

After her parents’ divorce shatters the image of her happy childhood, Effie has all but cut ties with her father and his glamorous new partner. When the family home is sold, she sneaks into a lavish “house-cooling” party to retrieve a treasured set of Russian dolls—but discovering what her family is really hiding may prove harder than getting in unnoticed. As Effie navigates adult sibling rivalries, fractured loyalties, and a series of increasingly farcical encounters, she must confront the uncomfortable truths beneath her family’s polished surface. Funny, sharply observed, and unexpectedly moving, this is a warm exploration of family, forgiveness, and whether broken relationships can be repaired.
