"--

Breckenridge, Colorado. Three months ago, Sarah St. John's son, Cully, died in an avalanche. Her father, a retiree, tries to distract her; her best friend offers life advice by venting details of her own messy divorce. Even Cully's father reemerges, stirring old emotions and confusion. Trying to face her grief alone, 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.
