I'm halfway through my life, or maybe more, and I'm finally awake
to the fact that it's in my hands alone. I've believed in other
people, had faith, been patient, waiting for my moment -- enough,
already. Who have I been kidding? Nora Eldridge has always been a
good girl: a good daughter, colleague, friend, employee. She
teaches at an elementary school in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where
the children and the parents adore her; but her real passion is her
art, which she makes alone, unseen. To be an artist is, she is
sure, her real destiny. Then one day Reza Shahid appears in her
classroom: eight years old, a perfect, beautiful boy. Reza's
parents are on a year-long visit from Paris: Skandar, his father,
has a fellowship at Harvard; Sirena, his mother, is a glamorous
installation artist apparently on the brink of huge success. For
that magical year, Nora is admitted into their charmed circle, and
everything is transformed. Or so she believes. As it turns out, her
liberation from the benign shackles of her old life is not quite
what it seems, and she is about to suffer a betrayal more monstrous
than anything she could have imagined.
