Who can guess what a woman will do when the unthinkable
becomes her reality? From the bestselling author of THE WEIGHT OF
WATER, this enormously gripping and powerfully wrought novel asks
the questions we all have about ourselves and definitively places
Anita Shreve among the ranks of the best novelists writing today.
Being married to a pilot has taught Kathryn Lyons to be ready for
emergencies, but nothing has prepared her for the late-night knock
on her door and the news of her husband''s fatal crash. As Kathryn
struggles through her grief, she is forced to confront disturbing
rumours about the man she loved and the life that she took for
granted. Torn between her impulse to protect her husband''s memory
and her desire to know the truth, Kathryn sets off to find out if
she ever really knew the man who was her husband. In her
determination to test the truth of her marriage, she faces shocking
revelations about the secrets a man can keep and the actions a
woman is willing to take.
