My mother and her sisters still live in this town where they were born and grew up. The next generation has long gone to live in places as far apart as any cyclone could scatter them. Kate has escaped from the place she still calls home, but when her infertility forces her to confront the fears driving her, home and family beckon with deceptive promises of comfort and answers. The Mintons are a family of women shaped by the details of domestic life in their provincial town, where secrets are best kept hidden. But secrets have a way of forcing themselves through the cracks and reverberating soundlessly across generations.
