Four people, scattered by time and geography, are pulled back into close proximity in midlife, unable to escape the childhood trauma that binds them. At the vortex are the mysteriously silent woman Cat and the Chinese-Australian photographer who monitors and records everything.
A story of high tension and terrifying allure....Her writing has perfect pitch.
Richard Eder, Los Angeles TIMES
Evocative settings, characters we care deeply about, and language that is entrancingly lyrical.
