Rosa, a retired schoolteacher, is haunted by the death of her son, which she blames herself for; Nell, a retired nurse, is coping with her husband's death and her granddaughter's mental illness; and Jeannie, a stay-at-home mom and former news reporter, is grappling with the sudden death of her husband and the realization that she may not have long to live. Together, the women explore the mysteries of life and death, love and loss, and the ties that bind us to one another.; Ex-Library; 8vo; FSA.
