Fiction
Brunonia Barry, the "New York Times" bestselling author of
"The Lace Reader," offers an emotionally compelling novel
about finding your true place in the world. Zee Finch has
come a long way from a motherless childhood spent stealing
boats--a talent that earned her the nickname Trouble. She's
now a respected psychotherapist working with the
world-famous Dr. Liz Mattei. She's also about to marry one
of Boston's most eligible bachelors. But the suicide of
Zee's patient Lilly Braedon throws Zee into emotional chaos
and takes her back to places she though she'd left behind.
What starts as a brief visit home to Salem after Lilly's
funeral becomes the beginning of a larger journey for Zee.
Her father, Finch, long ago diagnosed with Parkinson's
disease, has been hiding how sick he really is. His longtime
companion, Melville, has moved out, and it now falls to Zee
to help her father through this difficult time. Their
relationship, marked by half-truths and the untimely death
of her mother, is strained and awkward. Overwhelmed by her
new role, and uncertain about her future, Zee destroys the
existing map of her life and begins a new journey, one that
will take her not only into her future but into her past as
well. Like the sailors of old Salem who navigated by looking
at the stars, Zee has to learn to find her way through
uncharted waters to the place she will ultimately call home.
