Description: Someone You Love Is Gone is a beautifully rendered, multi-generational story of secrets and ghosts that haunt a family.  A powerful exploration of loss and love, memory and history, family ties and family secrets, and the thin veil between this life and the next.

Simran's mother has died but is not gone. Haunted by her mother's spirit and memories of the past, she struggles to make sense of her world while facing disillusion in her marriage, growing distance from her daughter and sister, and the return of her long-estranged brother. As her life unravels, Simran confronts the truth of why her brother was separated from the family at a young age, and in doing so she uncovers an ancestral inheritance that changes everything.
