Description

In a quiet, seemingly ordinary town, a family’s carefully managed life begins to unravel when a long-buried secret resurfaces and forces everyone—especially the adults—to confront what they’ve been avoiding. As relationships strain and loyalties shift, the story follows how small choices ripple outward, drawing each character into a reckoning shaped by grief, desire, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive. With Emma Straub’s signature blend of sharp emotional insight and luminous, character-driven storytelling, the novel explores the tension between appearance and truth, and what it really means to grow up when the past won’t stay past. Part domestic drama and part moral inquiry, this is a compelling portrait of community, accountability, and the complicated ways love can both protect and expose us.
