"Powerful
. . . A twisting tale of love, loss, and dark family secrets."
-- Paula Hawkins, #1 New York
Times bestselling author of The Girl
on the Train and Into
the Water
A poignant and suspenseful drama
that untangles the complicated ties binding three women--two sisters and their
mother--in one Chinese immigrant family and explores what happens when the
eldest daughter disappears, and a series of family secrets emerge, from the New York Times bestselling
author of Girl in
Translation
It begins with a mystery. Sylvie, the beautiful, brilliant, successful older
daughter of the Lee family, flies to the Netherlands for one final visit with
her dying grandmother--and then vanishes.
Amy, the sheltered baby of the
Lee family, is too young to remember a time when her parents were newly
immigrated and too poor to keep Sylvie. Seven years older, Sylvie was raised by
a distant relative in a faraway, foreign place, and didn't rejoin her family in
America until age nine. Timid and shy, Amy has always looked up to her sister,
the fierce and fearless protector who showered her with unconditional love.
