When Clifford Stilton dies, his son Gene stores away his father's diaries, but Clifford's words soon begin to influence his family's world. Clifford taught Gene about nature and hunting, an inheritance Gene passes to his daughters, Bridget and Christina, who find their own ways to explore the past and confront death. Meanwhile, their mother Etta shares a different story of her 1940s childhood. This novel weaves together five vivid lives across continents and decades, from the Berlin rave scene to rural 1950s New Zealand, creating an affecting and exhilarating read.
