En savoir plus sur le livre
Long before Liane Moriarty captivated readers with her tales, Shreve was already enhancing domestic dramas, and she continues to do so with remarkable skill. In this gripping new novel from the best-selling author of The Pilot's Wife, the story unfolds in 1947, amidst raging fires along the coast of Maine after a summer drought. Grace Holland, five months pregnant, is left to protect her two toddlers when her unpredictable husband, Gene, joins the volunteers battling the flames. Alongside her best friend Rosie and Rosie's children, Grace watches in horror as their homes are consumed by fire, ultimately seeking refuge in the ocean. As dawn breaks, they miraculously survive but face a new reality: homeless and penniless, they must navigate an uncertain future. With Gene's fate unknown, Grace is thrust into a world where she must rebuild her life from scratch, finding work and a home to support her children. Amidst profound loss, she discovers unexpected joys and freedoms that her previous life with Gene never allowed. Just as she begins to embrace her new independence, an unthinkable event tests her bravery like never before.
