"Gallery original fiction hard."
Two women meet by accident on a Nantucket beach and are drawn into a friendship. Olivia is a young mother whose eight-year-old severely autistic son has recently died. She comes to the island in a trial separation to try and make sense of the tragedy of her Anthony's short life. Beth, a stay-at-home mother of three, is also recently separated after discovering her husband's long-term infidelity.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Powerful read submitted by Carolyn J Petersen on October 19, 2021, 8:08pm This is a fabulous read. It is gut wrenching in the best way. It takes place on Nantucket, wonderful descriptions and gives a real feel of the place. The characters grow and change, we take the journey with them. The last chapters are a surprise. I see on the page, what happens, some of the time, when I write poetry.
