Förlagets information

Can the truth bring them back together before it's too late? A classic novel of a family in crisis, from the author of the runaway bestseller AMERICAN DIRT

'A riveting tale of three generations, this is storytelling at its finest' JOHN BOYNE
'Utterly absorbing, a big, sweeping story of family and identity' EDEL COFFEY

'Why hadn't she said to her daughter I love you beyond reason and none of this matters at all and every day that you breathe is a gift?'

Rafaela remembers everything that matters: her beautiful childhood in San Juan, her marriage to Peter, uprooting their children, Ruth and Benny, to the American Midwest, and losing all sense of her place in the world. So she tells no one when her memory begins to slip.

Her daughter, in New York with a family of her own, wishes she could forget her muddy feelings about where she comes from - the same feelings which motivated her 22-year-old daughter Daisy to reconnect with their past.

Daisy, who has momentarily forgotten everything, hears the word critical in a hospital room in San Juan and remembers, all at once, the car that hurtled towards her, the terrible storm, and something else. What was it?

Now Ruth and Rafaela must return to the city where it all began, to gather by Daisy's bedside and confront the twists of fate that have caused a growing rift in their family and led them to this moment.
