Description
Joanna Trollope's novel explores the complexities of family relationships and the challenges of letting go. When the children of a devoted mother grow up, she must confront the reality of her changing role. As her daughters-in-law become more important to her sons, she begins to feel her control slipping away.
A crisis brings these subtle rifts to the surface, forcing the family to re-evaluate their dynamics. Can they find a way forward and survive as a family, or will the traditional family structure crumble?
