Description
A mother's struggles with depression threaten to engulf her daughter. As Molly navigates her own teenage worries, she becomes increasingly concerned about her mother Elaine's fragile state. Elaine has always found solace in the stories of others, but now she is forced to confront her own secrets. As Elaine's condition worsens, Molly discovers a hidden truth about their family's past that could change everything. A long-buried secret from 1918 New York City holds the key to unlocking a mystery that has been hidden for decades. This dual-narrative novel explores the complex bond between mothers and daughters during two pivotal moments in American history: the flu epidemic of 1918 and the post-war era of 1955.
