A family saga with multiple twists and secrets. Marie, the eldest sister, has found refuge in her happy family life with her musician husband, her vintage bookstore and two daughters. She is the serious, responsible and intellectual member of the family. The middle sibling, Anne, lives surrounded by nature at the foot of her lighthouse in Port Manech, on the coast of Britanny. There she sculpts, devours life and men, and obstinately waits for that magical moment when her dreams will come true. The youngest, Lise, is the most solitary and fragile of the three, who hopelessly searches for a path that will lead her out of her melancholy and make her believe once again in the promise of happiness. All three daughters have become distant from their cold and taciturn father. His death will force them to face their past and try to understand this quiet man. In the process they will reevaluate their own lives, and discover the freedom to choose to be whatever they desire. Françoise Kerymer is a bookseller. She divides her time between Paris and Brittany. This is her first novel.
