From the "intrepid, challenge-taking writer" of The Kashmir Shawl "comes this story of sisterly rifts and betrayal" ( Good Housekeeping).
"Introspective and descriptive writing carry along . . . Thomas' examination of a woman searching for her place in the world. Music writer Constance Thorne is living a seemingly idyllic life in Bali. But paradise can't completely insulate her from the world. She is called back to London to be with her dying sister, Jeanette, a journey that is challenging in many ways. Years before, Constance fell in love with her sister's husband and ended up not only heartbroken but also estranged from the family. Because she was a foundling and raised by adoptive parents, the rejection hit her very hard. Her solution—to flee to Bali—has anchored her until now. Following Constance from lush Bali back to noisy London, the story line also meanders around Jeanette's son, Noah, and his girlfriend, Roxana, who is from Uzbekistan and does her own soul-searching." — Booklist
"A terrific book, beautifully written . . . Questions about identity, belonging, infidelity, dying and forgiveness make this a very moving study of the human heart." — Australian Women's Weekly
"Heart-rending and beautifully written . . . You can't fail to be moved." — Daily Express
"Prepare to be dazzled . . . An epic tale of sisterhood and betrayal." — Company
"Thomas' second novel maps out a resonating, touching story that most readers are unlikely to forget . . . An addictive, well-written masterpiece featuring lovely and original characters." — Romantic Times
