A family can hand you its whole story. That doesn't mean you're obligated to end it exactly the same way it started.

When ninety-four-year-old Hedy Bell dies, her family gathers in her Philadelphia rowhouse to sort through a lifetime of belongings - and uncovers sixty years of hidden medical records, old letters from Berlin, and a pattern of illness none of them fully understood. What Runs in the Family follows three generations of the Bell family as they confront what they've inherited: not just genetics, but silence, fear, food, and the habits passed down at the same kitchen table for decades. A moving, book-club-ready family saga about the difference between family history and family destiny - and the choice that remains, always, in the space between them.
