A quietly devastating masterpiece that grips and moves readers profoundly. The storytelling is masterful, presenting an arresting tale of love and grief, exploring the wounding and healing powers of family and the many forms of a mother's love. The writing is exquisite, offering a compelling and tender narrative about the hidden complexities within families that feel both timeless and contemporary. The voice is arresting, evoking a delicate beauty that belies intrinsic strength. This compelling read delves into difficult family situations and evocative secrets. In this heart-aching novel from the author of the award-winning Golden Child, a mother searches for the daughter she left behind decades ago. In Trinidad, 1980, 16-year-old Dawn Bishop leaves home for Venezuela, where she gives birth to a baby girl and leaves her with nuns for adoption. As Dawn navigates life in England—marriage, career, two sons, and divorce—she constantly reflects on the child she had to leave behind. Forty years later, a woman from an internet forum claims to be Dawn's long-lost daughter, igniting a complex mix of emotions and the hope that this connection could fulfill the love and care a mother has long wished to offer.
