As a child, Maggie Faraday grew up in a lively,
unconventional household with her young mother, four very
different aunts, and eccentric grandfather. With her mother
often away, her aunts took turns looking after her–until,
just weeks before Maggie’s sixth birthday, a shocking event
changed everything.
Twenty years later, Maggie is living alone in New York City
when she receives a surprise visit from her grandfather
Leo, who brings a revelation and a proposition: He’s
preparing a special gift for his daughters and needs
Maggie’s help. When the Faradays gather from all parts of
the world to celebrate Christmas in July–a longstanding
tradition–Maggie uncovers unexpected family history and
learns that the women she thought she knew so intimately
all have something to hide.
