When Geoffrey Tremont is asked to be the executor to the estate of Laura Wells, a college friend with whom he has not spoken for more than twenty years, he obliges even though Laura leaves no explanation for her request. But as he begins to sort through the loose ends of his friend’s life in small town Shady Grove, NY and encounters the people who were most influential in her life—particularly her best friend, a young widow named Marian Ballantine—he finds that the most important discoveries he is making are about himself.  Once again, Jamie M. Saul delivers an emotionally compelling drama about allegiances and friendship that illuminates life’s often overlooked nooks and crannies—the less-traveled roads that can teach us about love, loss and learning to let go.
