I think you can see in plenty of places what this book is about. It is about Laura, who agrees to do what her dying father asks, which is to take care of a woman, named Sarah. Then Laura's husband who suffers from chronic depression commits suicide. The suicide causes the 5 year old daughter to stop talking. Add to this mix, the little girl's real father coming into their lives.

So that is the summary, but is it worth reading? I read the entire 409 pages in one day. It was such an engaging story, that was well written.

I was more than a 3rd of way through the book when I light bulb went off in my head, and I thought I finally knew the connection between Laura's dying father and the elderly woman Sarah. I was close, but didnt exactly expect the final outcomes as all these lives merge. The ending was very satisfying.
