Some paths are dead ends. But some gardens remain beautiful...
The year Susannah Nelson turned eighteen changed everything: her
boyfriend, Jake, left her unexpectedly, and her brother died in a car
accident months later.
At fifty, Susannah finds herself regretting the paths not taken. Long
married, a mother and a teacher, she should be happy. But she feels
there's something missing in her life, although she doesn't know exactly
what. Not only that, she's balancing the demands of a temperamental
twenty-year-old daughter and an aging mother who now needs her help.
When Susannah goes home to Colville, Washington, to look after her
mother, she decides to try to find out what happened to Jake all those
years ago. In returning to her parents' house, her girlhood friends and
the garden she's always loved, Susannah also returns to the past--and
the choices she made back then.
Macomber explores the intricate dynamics of family with sincerity and
wit in this well-crafted novel. --Publishers Weekly
