Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's quarter green cloth with blue lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Susan S Kelly's award-winning debut novel, "How Close We Come," told a deeply affecting story of two best friends, and of what happened when their seemingly unbreakable bond was threatened. Here, she reveals a different aspect of women's friendships. In this tale, a close friendship gone wrong years earlier still has the power to make a woman question herself and her life. When her husband, Hal, accepts a teaching position at a private school in the tiny North Carolina town of Rural Ridge, Hannah Marsh views her family's move as a chance to return to a simpler, sweeter way of living. Contentedly married for seventeen years and the mother of two children, she nevertheless has a nagging sense that something is absent from her life. Then, at a casual neighborhood dinner, Hannah encounters someone she thought she'd never see again: Daintry O'Connor, a ghost from her childhood. Condition: Fine in like jacket.
