This follows directly on from Before the Storm one year later but does stand perfectly well alone – only you’ll get more from it if you have previously read the first. It is small-town America and deals with big issues in the aftermath of a tragedy within the community and how folk find it difficult to forgive. Very much Jodi Picoult or Anita Shreve territory.
Comparison: Jodi Picoult, Anita Shreve, Jane Hamilton.
