About this book
When a shared loss brings four accomplished women together for a summer, they find themselves sorting through more than just their late friend's belongings—they're confronting the secrets and struggles they've each been carrying alone. A bestselling novelist hiding her past, an academic exhausted by isolation, a romance writer watching her life spin out of control, and a mystery author trapped in a dangerous marriage discover that sometimes the greatest escape is being truly seen by others who understand. As they work through their personal storms together, these women begin to realize that their own stories matter just as much as the ones they've spent their careers writing. In finding each other, they stumble upon the most unexpected plot twist: a path back to themselves.
