Description

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult, "a profound and moving novel about secrets, lies, and how the power of stories can change the course of history" (Shelf Awareness).
Some stories live forever...

Sage Singer is a baker. She works through the night, preparing the day's breads and pastries, trying to escape a life of loneliness, bad memories, and the shadow of her mother's death. When Josef Weber, an elderly man in Sage's grief support group, begins stopping by the bakery, they strike up an unlikely friendship. Despite their differences, they see in each other the hidden scars that others can't.

Everything changes on the day that Josef confesses a long-buried and shame­ful secret and asks Sage for an extraordinary favor. If she says yes, she faces not only moral repercussions, but potentially legal ones as well.

In this "harrowing, unforgettable journey" (The Miami Herald), Jodi Picoult gracefully explores the lengths to which we will go in order to keep the past from dictating the future.
