Highly recommended for all collections. Library Journal, Starred Review!
New Yorker Neil Sadler returns to his hometown of Mason, Ohio, where his small-town life had been rocked by the suspicious death of Helen Syfert, the mother of Neil s friend Mary. He reconnects with Mary. Their once-close relationship hadn t been strong enough to survive the tragedy that overtook Mary s family, yet what drove them apart years ago now seems to be drawing them back together. But Neil is struggling to recover from a more recent loss. Yet the mystery of Helen s death remains unsolved, and to bring closure will mean facing old truths hard truths and discovering some new ones.
