Description
A young woman’s life is upended by a sudden, life-altering event that forces her to confront the distance—emotional, physical, and moral—between what people promise and what they deliver. As the story moves through shifting timelines, she grapples with love, loyalty, and the long shadows cast by family secrets and past choices. With lyrical intensity and sharp psychological insight, this novel explores grief, identity, and the ways we measure our lives against the people we lose. Maggie O’Farrell’s distinctive style—propulsive yet intimate—draws readers into a deeply human drama where every revelation reshapes the meaning of “us.”
