Summary |
"An idyllic lakeside resort seems like the perfect family vacation for Olivia and Harry Somerville and their three young boys. That is, until, returning from a solo hike one morning, Olivia hears that one of her sons has drowned. Before she can discover which son she's lost, she makes a decision that affects her and her family for the rest of their lives: She runs. Olivia begins a new life in a quiet town, hiding in a lie she tells herself every day: "I have three children." If she never learns which son drowned, can she convince herself that none of them did? A deep meditation on the nature of loss and the gift of recovery, The Ones We Keep follows the next three decades as a fragmented family picks up the pieces and fights for a future free of grief and full of hope"-- Provided by publisher. |
