Description
Set in Atlantic City in 1934, this richly atmospheric historical novel follows the Adler family through one extraordinary summer marked by ambition, loyalty, and loss. When competitive swimmer Florence Adler disappears during a morning swim, her family makes a desperate decision to shield her recovering daughter from the truth, setting off a web of secrecy that touches friends, neighbors, and strangers alike. Moving among multiple perspectives, the story explores grief, family bonds, immigration, class, and the ways people protect one another—even when compassion comes at a cost. Warm, poignant, and deeply human, it captures the complexity of a family struggling to hold itself together.
