Summary
"Silence has always marked Lorna's family. Her father was deaf. Her mother, Marika, helped rescue children as a teenage member of the Dutch Resistance, yet later abandoned her own young son and daughter. No explanation was ever offered. Nor why she resurfaced decades afterward to invite Lorna--by then a married social worker with a baby--to visit her remote cottage on Lake Champlain. For the past eighteen years, Lorna has struggled to make taciturn, difficult Marika part of the family, if only so her son, Adam, could have a grandmother. But now it's Adam who's turned silent."--
