A moving and insightful novel about an impossible love triangle by the "exceptionally gifted," New York Times–bestselling author of Anything (Fresh Fiction).
Hugh Penders has been stuck in neutral for nearly a decade since his brother, Chase, died in an accident. He carries with him two secrets that he's never been able to share with anyone: that he believes he might have been able to prevent the tragedy, and that he was deeply in love with Chase's girlfriend, Iris.
When Hugh's father suffers a debilitating heart attack, Hugh must return to the New England home he's been running away from for the past ten years. One day, he encounters Iris-who has long since moved away-on the street. They begin a friendship, and Hugh believes he's falling in love with Iris all over again.
But the ghost of Chase haunts them both. And when each reveals a truth the other never knew, their lives, their visions of Chase, and their chances for a future together will change forever, in this soulful, romantic novel charged by the power of desire and the impact of loss.
