From the superb storyteller Joanna Trollope comes a moving new novel about Richie Rossiter, a crooner and piano man who abandoned his first wife and son for a young woman who believed she could bring him stardom. Not only does Chrissie rejuvenate his career, she gives him twenty-three years of happy domestic life and three lovely daughters. When suddenly Richie dies, and at his funeral the two families meet for the first time in years, the uneasy truce between his past and his present loves breaks down into open animosities, fanned by certain bequests he has made and certain secret loyalties he has kept. Grief, loss, jealousy and love rewrite the relationships of both families in ways Richie never could have imagined. Print run 10,000.
