Publisher's summary

From the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of The Wife Between Us comes a twisty short story about a chance encounter that tests the boundaries of a mother’s love.

Blair Martin’s days rarely vary: she gets up, goes for a run, and then heads to work at a Manhattan literary agency where she nurtures authors through the publishing process. Her nights, spent alone in her too-large apartment, are similarly predictable.

Then on an ordinary Wednesday, Blair enters her office building and spies a lost wallet. When Blair tracks down the owner, they arrange for a simple exchange. But the young woman, Maya, seems so vulnerable, much like Blair’s own daughter, Faith, who died tragically just last year, and Blair is unable to simply walk away. Tentatively, Blair takes Maya under her wing. Both women are all too familiar with loss, and they find solace in spending time together. But as their connection deepens, they discover that each of them is harboring secrets much darker than grief.

Interesting Short Story!

Very interesting story, wish it was longer and we got to see what happened with Mara. The narrators voices were great and fit the ages of the characters.

Confusing ending

I lived the narrator and story, but when it ended I did not know what had happened. “I don’t get it,” my friend said, after listening with me. “Me neither!” I agreed. Nevertheless, I love this author in novel length books.

Great read!

All is not what it seems at the outset of this terrific short story. I was at the edge of my proverbial set waiting to see what would happen next and did not the ending coming. Can’t wait to read more from this wonderful author.

Novella

This novella is great, my only complaint was the ending. But the more I think about it maybe this is just an introduction to a longer story. I hope so because it is well written and was a great listen to. The narrators Lauren Ezzo and Susannah Jones do a wonderful job.

Good short listen

An entertaining story and short listen for when you want to finish a story same day. I wished it was just a bit longer since the plot was pretty rushed and I’d be interested in knowing what happens next.

A Show of Faith

This was a well written piece & the reader was excellent. Just was shocked that it ended so abruptly.

Too short

Very intriguing and then…..well, sort of creepy, but it needed more. Too short. The narration was good.

Would have loved a better ending.

It ended abruptly with too many questions left in my head. It was a great story up until the end.
