The End of the Day

'A writer with a profound comprehension of emotional destruction, loss and redemption' Sunday Times

A retired widow in rural Connecticut wakes to an unexpected visit from her childhood best friend whom she hasn't seen in forty-nine years.

A man arrives at a Bethlehem, Pennsylvania hotel to introduce his estranged father to his newborn daughter and finds him collapsed on the floor of the lobby.

A sixty-seven-year-old taxi driver in Kauai receives a phone call from the mainland that jars her back to a traumatic past.

These seemingly disconnected lives come together as half-century-old secrets begin to surface over the course of one fateful day...

Quietly devastating... A finely-wrought masterpiece...

Francesca Carington, Sunday Telegraph *Novel of the Week*
