by Maribeth Fischer (Author)
A propulsive novel that fundamentally questions what makes a "good" mother, with a heartrending portrayal of one woman's quest to find her voice.
Ten years after an unspeakable tragedy caused Claire to flee her hometown in Delaware, she finally feels content. She has a quiet, tidy life in Wisconsin, a place she picked at random for its shape on a map. Her careful existence centers on a simple plan: keep her social circle small and keep the past a secret.
