Description

On a perfect June day, Vivian Howe—a celebrated beach-novel author and mother of three nearly grown children—is killed in a hit-and-run accident on Nantucket. From beyond, she is granted one summer to watch over her family and quietly guide them through grief, secrets, and the difficult transition into adulthood. As her children confront the life she left behind, the novel explores parental loss, family bonds, love, regret, and the choices that shape a life. Set against the sunlit beauty of Nantucket, this emotionally resonant story blends warmth, mystery, and Hilderbrand’s signature portrait of complicated relationships.
