As a lawyer in a large Manhattan firm, just shy of making partner, Clementine Evans has finally achieved almost everything sheβs been working towardsβbut now sheβs not sure itβs enough. Her long hours have led to a broken engagement and, suddenly single at thirty-four, she feels her messy life crumbling around her.
But when the family gathers for her grandmother Addieβs ninety-ninth birthday, a relative lets slip hints about a long-buried family secret, leading Clemmie on a journey into the past that could change everything. . . .
What follows is a potent story that spans generations and continents, bringing an Out of Africa feel to a Downton Abbey cast of unforgettable characters. From the inner circles of WWI-era British society to the skyscrapers of Manhattan and the red-dirt hills of Kenya, the never-told secrets of a woman and a family unfurl.
