"The death of Donald Ray in a freak car accident becomes the catalyst for the release of passions, needs, and hurts. Clayton's discovery of dead Donald Ray upends his longtime emotional numbness. Darlene, the seventeen-year-old widow, struggles to reconnect with her late husband while proving herself still alive. Soon Clayton and Darlene's bond of loss and death works its magic, drawing them into an affair that brings the loneliness in Clayton's marriage to a crisis. When Aurilla Cutter, Clayton's mother-in-law, learns about the affair, her own memories of longing and infidelity are set loose. Like Darlene's passions--unappeased and clung to--Aurilla's possess an intensity that denies life to the present. As Aurilla's own forbidden and tragic story of love, death, and repeated loss alternates with Darlene's and Clayton's, the divide of generations narrows and collapses, building to the unlikely collision."--Amazon.
