Description
Can one terrible moment change your life forever?
"The days and weeks that followed were snapshots in his mind. Cluttered night tables, filled with pill bottles on his mother's side..." To those on the outside, the Powells are a happy family, but then a devastating accident destroys their fragile facade. When seven year-old Henry is blamed for the tragedy, he tries desperately to make his parents happy again.
As Henry grows up, he is full of potential - a talented sportsman with an academic mind and a thirst for adventure - but soon he questions if the guilt his parents have burdened him with has left him unable to escape his anguished family or their painful past...
With a delicate touch and masterful attention to detail, New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Flock invites us to meet a man both ordinary and extraordinary, and to experience a life that has yet to be lived.
