Women's Fiction
Zadie Anson and Emma Colley have been best friends since
their early twenties, when they first began navigating
serious romantic relationships amid the intensity of
medical school. Now they're happily married wives and
mothers with successful careers--Zadie as a pediatric
cardiologist and Emma as a trauma surgeon. Their lives in
Charlotte, North Carolina are chaotic but fulfilling,
until the return of a former colleague unearths a secret
one of them has been harboring for years. As chief resident, Nick Xenokostas was the center of
Zadie's life--both professionally and personally--
throughout a tragic chain of events in her third year of
medical school that she has long since put behind her.
Nick's unexpected reappearance during a time of new
professional crisis shocks both women into a deeper look
at the difficult choices they made at the beginning of
their careers. As it becomes evident that Emma must have
known more than she revealed about circumstances that
nearly derailed both their lives, Zadie starts to
question everything she thought she knew about her
closest friend.
