It was on a sunlit morning like this back in 1989 that Adam called the house. Did he first try reaching me at the university? I've wondered about that far too many times. Kate picked up the phone. 'Alison is dead, ' Adam said, and then he broke. After his first wife's bewildering betrayal, a devastated young college professor rediscovers happiness many years later when he marries a vibrant, complicated, much younger woman named Sophie. But as Francis nears retirement, a disturbing development induces him to revisit a long-ago tragedy. Francis confesses the regrets, longings, and unresolved issues of his tortured past, and wrestles with the unanswered question that threatens to destroy his current marriage and life.
