One night, the author of a famous fantasy series, Bronwyn Newcastle Fordham, just disappears from the shores of South Carolina.  She left behind her young daughter, Clara, her husband, and an untranslated sequel to her bestselling work. Decades later, Clara has grown up, now an illustrator with a daughter named Wynnie, but is still troubled by the unsolved disappearance of her mother. One day, Clara receives a call from Charlie Jameson, a British man in London who is reeling from the death of his father, and who has found papers related to Bronwyn and Clara and the untranslated manuscript. Clara decides to take a chance and travel to England with her daughter to see if she can learn why her mother left and what happened to her. It’s a beautiful book about motherhood and creativity.
