While living in Paradise and enjoying a boating trip, a couple wakes up to discover that their fearless beautiful 7 year old boy is missing from the boat. Gone.
While trying to find their way out of their grief, Rachel and James find it easier to be apart. James returns to work and Rachel returns to her childhood home in England. Through it all, their Bermudian housekeeper Cee-Cee writes letters to Rachel, talking about her own loss and how she found her way out of the darkness.
I enjoyed the writing style very much. It was a tear-jerker in many places. It is a story of navigating loss and grief and the places that it takes you and somehow hopefully finding your way back home. I selected the book based solely on its title and brief description and I’m so glad I did.
I understand that each person grieves in their own way but found Rachel a difficult character to like. and that had an effect on how much I liked the book.
I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
