The final novel in the Oltrarno Passages trilogy.
The story that began when Eli found Graham comes at last to Levi - the one who watched it all from the edge.
Two years ago, Levi Bauer had nowhere to go. Now he has a seat at Graham Tierney's table and a place in the family that assembled itself around Eli - close enough to belong, careful enough never to ask for more. The quiet one. The one still half-braced, after everything, for it all to be taken back.
Then there's Danny Callahan - blunt where Levi is guarded, the first person who never made him feel he had to translate himself. Falling in love was the easy part; Levi has even said so out loud. But a lifetime of disappointment teaches you to keep something in reserve. The hardest thing he has ever faced isn't trusting Danny. It's trusting himself to set the armor down and let it be real.
Woven through is The Other Shore, the final Oltrarno novel, and in it Luca: the boy taken in with nothing in his hands, no gift to offer. Loved anyway. Never pushed. Left to find, in his own time, the thing that was always his.
The Other Shore is a novel about the families we choose on purpose. About the courage it takes to set down the armor you needed once and need no longer.
And about giving yourself permission to be held.
