A New York Times Bestseller
The events of a December afternoon, during which a father and
his daughter find an abandoned infant in the snow, will forever
alter the 11-year-old girl's understanding of the world and the
adults who inhabit it: a father who has taken great pains to remove
himself from society to forget an unthinkable tragedy behind him; a
young woman who must live with the consequences of her terrible
choices; and a detective whose cleverness is exceeded only by his
sense of justice. Written from the point of view of 30-year-old
Nicky as she recalls the vivid images of that fateful December, her
tale is one of love and courage, of tragedy and redemption, and of
the ways in which the human heart always seeks to heal itself.
