Publisher's summary
Laura Brandon's promise to her dying father was simple: to visit an elderly woman she'd never heard of before. A woman who remembers nothing-except the distant past. Visiting Sarah Tolley seemed a small enough sacrifice to make. But Laura's promise results in another death: her husband's. And after their five-year-old daughter, Emma, witnesses her father's suicide, Emma refuses to talk about it - to talk at all.Frantic and guilt ridden, Laura contacts the only person who may be able to help. A man she's met only once - six years before. A man who doesn't know he's Emma's real father. Guided only by a child's silence and an old woman's fading memories, the two unravel a tale of love and despair, of bravery and unspeakable evil. A tale that's shrouded in silence...and that unbelievably links them all.

He hadn't been out of the building in the four years since he'd come in. He was afraid of water and wouldn't take a shower. He was afraid to be naked, to change his clothes. He was nearly 16. Desperate to see change in the boy, the staff of Kevin's adolescent treatment center hired Hayden. As Hayden read to him and encouraged him to read, crawling down into his cage of chairs with him, Kevin talked.

Painfully beautiful
This story explores a very sensitive and dark topic of our history while mixing in romance and a very real day to day perspective of the aging process.

One of the best books ever!
Great story! I couldn’t stop listening! I gave the performance a lower score because the performer was overly dramatic and talked through her nose.

Great story, hard to listen
Narration was overcome only because the story and the writing were so great as is normally the case with this author. But very hard to put up with the whimpering whispery tone of the narrator

New and Great Story
This story was not a rewrite of a story I have read hundreds of times. It was very interesting and kept me guessing. I loved the story of the character of Sarah who is the old women described in the summary.
Problem...the reader was really hard to listen to. I was loving the story so I literally had to force myself to get used to that voice. Eventually I was able to get passed the voice and focus on the story.
Its too bad because I think many will try to listen but give up after a few minutes of that voice.
