From the author of The Art of Inheriting Secrets comes an emotional new tale of two sisters, an ocean of lies, and a search for the truth.

Her sister has been dead for fifteen years when she sees her on the TV news.

Josie Bianci was killed years ago on a train during a terrorist attack.

Gone forever.

It's what her sister, Kit, an ER doctor in Santa Cruz, has always believed.

Yet all it takes is a few heart-wrenching seconds to upend Kit's world.

Live coverage of a club fire in Auckland has captured the image of a woman stumbling through the smoke and debris.

Her resemblance to Josie is unbelievable.

And unmistakable.

With it comes a flood of emotions--grief, loss, and anger--that Kit finally has a chance to put to rest: by finding the sister who's been living a lie.

After arriving in New Zealand, Kit begins her journey with the memories of the past: of days spent on the beach with Josie.

Of a lost teenage boy who'd become part of their family.

And of a trauma that has haunted Kit and Josie their entire lives.

Now, if two sisters are to reunite, it can only be by unearthing long-buried secrets and facing a devastating truth that has kept them apart far too long.

To regain their relationship, they may have to lose everything.
