Return to the world of FIREFLY LANE--now a Netflix series--from #1
New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah.
Once, a long time ago, I walked down a night-darkened road called
Firefly Lane, all alone, on the worst night of my life, and I found a
kindred spirit. That was our beginning. More than thirty years ago.
TullyandKate. You and me against the world. Best friends forever. But
stories end, don't they? You lose the people you love and you have to
find a way to go on. . . .
Tully Hart has always been larger than life, a woman fueled by big
dreams and driven by memories of a painful past. She thinks she can
overcome anything until her best friend, Kate Ryan, dies. Tully tries to
fulfill her deathbed promise to Kate--to be there for Kate's
children--but Tully knows nothing about family or motherhood or taking
care of people.
Sixteen-year-old Marah Ryan is devastated by her mother's death. Her
father, Johnny, strives to hold the family together, but even with his
best efforts, Marah becomes unreachable in her grief. Nothing and no one
seems to matter to her . . . until she falls in love with a young man
who makes her smile again and leads her into his dangerous, shadowy
world.
Dorothy Hart--the woman who once called herself Cloud--is at the center
of Tully's tragic past. She repeatedly abandoned her daughter, Tully, as
a child, but now she comes back, drawn to her daughter's side at a time
when Tully is most alone. At long last, Dorothy must face her darkest
fear: Only by revealing the ugly secrets of her past can she hope to
become the mother her daughter needs.
A single, tragic choice and a middle-of-the-night phone call will bring
these women together and set them on a poignant, powerful journey of
redemption. Each has lost her way, and they will need each one
another--and maybe a miracle--to transform their lives.
An emotionally complex, heart-wrenching novel about love, motherhood,
loss, and new beginnings, Fly Away reminds us that where there is
life, there is hope, and where there is love, there is forgiveness. Told
with her trademark powerful storytelling and illuminating prose, Kristin
Hannah reveals why she is one of the most beloved writers of our day.
