Description
A fierce memoir of loss and discovery, After the Eclipse is a story of a mother's murder, its aftermath, and the daughter's quest to understand her life. When Sarah Perry was twelve, she witnessed a partial eclipse, which would prove to be a harbinger of darkness. Two days later, her mother Crystal was killed in their home. The years that followed were marked by trauma, police interrogations, and the struggle to rebuild a life amidst abandonment. As Sarah grew older, she became determined to uncover the truth behind her mother's death. Her investigation took her back to the small town where it all began, drawing her into a world of mystery and darkness. Through her journey, Perry restores her mother's humanity and her own, creating a powerful and moving account that is both a tribute to Crystal and a testament to Sarah's resilience.
