โฆ Synopsis
Rural Virginia, 1945. The Second World War had just ended when Alice Hannon found the lifeless body of her five-year-old daughter, Eugenie, floating in Blue Lake. The tragedy of the little girl<U+2019>s death destroyed the Hannon family.More than twenty years later, Alice<U+2019>s youngest daughter, Regina, returns home after a long estrangement because her father is dying. She is shocked to discover, quite by accident, that her sister<U+2019>s drowning was briefly investigated as a murder at the time. For as long as she can remember, Regina has lived in the shadow of her family<U+2019>s grief. She becomes convinced that if she can discover the truth about Eugenie<U+2019>s death, she can mend the central rift in her life. With little to go on but old newspapers and letters, the dead girl<U+2019>s hairpin, and her own earliest memories, Regina teases out a family history of cascading tragedy that turns her world upside down.--Back cover.
