This was a challenging but beautifully written family story that truly is an onion. One tragic death of a child opens up the layers of the family’s past and unravels the mystery in part and in some parts doesn’t at all. Compellingly consumable I enjoyed this sad but hopeful tale full of rich characters. Very different from Nolan’s other novel - shows a rich, beautiful range in her ability to tell stories. I recommend both her books!!
