The mother Bunny, a teen runaway, could never be.As months turn into years without word, Jayne and her husband, Rodger, a rising journalism star, strive to give the children the opportunity to flourish and feel loved. When Jayne and Rodger finally have a child of their own, a seemingly stable home is built. But then, after nearly a decade, Bunny resurfaces and sets a chain of events in motion that detonates all their lives.As adults, their children try to reassemble the pieces and solve the mystery that has always haunted them. Who were their parents? What really happened between them? And who is ultimately to blame for the destruction? But will the answers they seek set them free - or lead to something far more damaging than anyone imagined?

More importantly she'd never wanted to be one of those tortured-artist types who drive everyone crazy while they nurture their art like it's an exotic plant that they keep alive under their coat. Her mother hates those people. When they were children, Jayne would come home from some museum gala, fuming as she tossed her beaded silk wrap on the couch.
"He ate the salad with his hands!" she'd vent at Lin, who was still awake, reading on the living room rug. "Like he was raised in-what's worse than a barn? I don't care how brilliant you think you are, there are rules!"
