Two women—separated by decades and continents, united by a mysterious family heirloom—discover second chances at love in this sweeping novel from a bestselling author. In New England, 2022, single mother Mallory Dunne faces the nightmare of her ten-year-old son, Sam, fighting for his life after a toxic mushroom poisoning. In her desperate search for a donor kidney, Mallory must confront painful secrets: her mother’s adoption from a notorious Irish orphanage in 1952 and her own heart-wrenching summer romance with childhood best friend Monk Adams, a beloved singer-songwriter, which ended in betrayal. Meanwhile, in Cairo, 1951, Hungarian refugee Hannah Ainsworth has rebuilt her life after the war, marrying a wealthy British diplomat. However, a chance meeting with a mysterious hotel manager ignites a passionate affair that rekindles her lost desires. As revolution brews in the streets, a pregnant Hannah finds herself entangled in intrigue between two men, leading to a sacrifice that will resonate through generations. Timeless and bittersweet, this novel takes readers on a journey of heartbreak and redemption, exploring complex themes of privilege, class, and the female experience against the backdrop of midcentury Egypt and contemporary New England. Acclaimed for its poignant storytelling, it brings to life deeply human characters navigating morally intricate worlds.
