Will Robin survive her dive into postpartum depression, let alone see Willis again?1983: Enid Fenton clears out her Mother's house and puts the family farm up for sale, trying to not be consumed by guilt for installing her mother into the county nursing home.Reading through some of her mother's diary entries, Enid uncovers a secret that helps her make sense of the unnamed point of division that has always soured their relationship.

Beautiful and haunting, Robin and Enid's story swept me to another era. These characters lived, and I loved watching them find their way to each other. Keep the tissues handy. You don't want to miss this story!"
