520    An enthralling novel about love, loss, secrets, friendship,
       and the healing power of literature, by the bestselling 
       author of The Knitting Circle. Ava's twenty-five-year 
       marriage has fallen apart, and her two grown children are 
       pursuing their own lives outside of the country. Ava joins
       a book group, not only for her love of reading but also 
       out of sheer desperation for companionship. The group's 
       goal throughout the year is for each member to present the
       book that matters most to them. Ava rediscovers a 
       mysterious book from her childhood--one that helped her 
       through the traumas of the untimely deaths of her sister 
       and mother. Alternating with Ava's story is that of her 
       troubled daughter Maggie, who, living in Paris, descends 
       into a destructive relationship with an older man. Ava's 
       mission to find that book and its enigmatic author takes 
       her on a quest that unravels the secrets of her past and 
       offers her and Maggie the chance to remake their lives.
