"A novel" -cover.

In the idyllic ski town of Breckenridge, Colorado, Sarah St. John is reeling. Three months ago, her twenty-two-year-old son, Cully, died in an avalanche. Though single, Sarah is hardly alone in her grief. Her father, a retiree, tries to distract her with gadgets from the QVC home shopping channel. Sarahs best friend offers life advice by venting details of her own messy divorce. Even Cullys father reemerges, stirring more emotions and confusion than Sarah needs. Barely ready to face the fact she will never again hear the swoosh of her sons ski pants, or watch him skateboard past her window, Sarah is surprised when a strange girl arrives on her doorstep. Unexpected and unexplained, she bears a secret from Cully that could change all of their lives forever.
