Clare PollardSunday Forrester lives with her sixteen-year-old
daughter, Dolly, in the house she grew up in. She does things more
carefully than most people. On quiet days, she must eat only white
foods.Her etiquette handbook guides her through confusing social
situations, and to escape, she turns to her treasury of Sicilian
folklore. The one thing very much out of her control is Dolly - her
clever, headstrong daughter, now on the cusp of leaving home.Into
this carefully ordered world step Vita and Rollo, a couple who move
in next door, disarm Sunday with their charm, and proceed to
deliciously break just about every rule in Sunday's book. Soon they
are in and out of each others' homes, and Sunday feels loved and
accepted like never before.But beneath Vita and Rollo's polish lies
something else, something darker. For Sunday has precisely what
Vita has always wanted for herself: a daughter of her own.
