Description

Following their mother's death, four estranged siblings reunite in their sweltering Florida hometown, forced to confront decades of buried secrets, betrayals, and simmering resentments. As the oppressive heat mirrors the rising tensions within the family, each sibling grapples with their own personal crises—from career failures and strained relationships to unspoken desires and corporate deceptions. Amidst the unraveling of their shared past, they must navigate the fragile bonds of kinship and decide if they can find a way back to each other, or if the weight of their history will tear them apart forever. This novel is a profound exploration of family dynamics, ambition, and the enduring power of love in the face of profound loss and societal change.
