The Breakpoint

di Chantel Guertin (Autore)

Doubleday Canada, 2027

A story of the seasons of life, marriage and motherhood—and if revisiting your past can bring you closure, or just more heartache. On the night before her 40th birthday, Lark is struggling with the fact she's reached the age her mother was when she died unexpectedly. With mortality on her mind—and facing the last summer before her eldest daughter leaves for university, and the undeniable fact that there are cracks forming in her once picture-perfect marriage to Leo—Lark convinces her family to spend the season in Southampton, the beach town where she once fell in love for the first time. It's where she spent one last summer with her mother—and also where her first love, Ash, vanished without explanation after their final night together, leaving Lark with a heartbreak she has never fully come to terms with. Once in Southampton, Lark slips back into the rituals of her youth: the tennis club and old friendships, the beach parties and bike rides along the shore. But when she meets Noah, a teenage boy who is unmistakably Ash's son, the past crashes into the present. As Lark's daughter June and Noah begin a tentative romance of their own, Lark is forced into proximity with Ash, and with the truth behind his sudden disappearance—and her own secret that she's kept from her husband, Leo, all these years.
