Ask Again, Yes

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER & RADIO 2 SUMMER BOOK CLUB PICK, A GRIPPING FAMILY DRAMA SET IN SUBURBAN NEW YORK ´I absolutely adored it´ Liane Moriarty, bestselling author of Big Little Lies Gillam, upstate New York. A town of ordinary, big-lawned suburban houses. The Gleesons have recently moved there and soon welcome the Stanhopes as their new neighbours. Lonely Lena Gleeson wants a friend but Anne Stanhope - cold, elegant, unstable - wants to be left alone. It´s left to their children - Lena´s youngest, Kate, and Anne´s only child, Peter - to find their way to one another. To form a friendship whose resilience and love will be almost broken by the fault line dividing both families, and by the terrible tragedy that will engulf them all. A tragedy whose true origins only become clear many years later . . . A story of love and redemption, faith and forgiveness, Ask Again, Yes reveals the way childhood memories change when viewed from the distance of adulthood - villains lose their menace, and those who appeared innocent seem less so. A story of how, if we´re lucky, the violence lurking beneath can be vanquished by the power of love.
