As a lawyer in a large Manhattan firm, just shy of making
partner, Clementine
Evans has finally achieved almost everything she’s been
working towards—but
now she’s not sure it’s 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 Addie’s
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.
