For nearly thirty years, Graham and Annie were the couple everyone envied. Graham, the gregarious bookseller with a magnetic charm, and Annie, the thoughtful photographer quietly shaping her art, built a life that seemed golden. Their marriage, their family, their love—unshakable.
Until it wasn’t.
When Graham dies suddenly, Annie is left devastated, grappling with the absence of the man who anchored her world. But grief soon takes a darker turn. A secret emerges, one that calls into question not just Graham’s fidelity but the very foundation of their marriage. Did she ever truly know him?
With wit, humanity, and aching precision, Sue Miller crafts a revelatory novel of love, betrayal, and the unbearable contradictions of intimacy.
