Synopsis
Another Life is a powerful, moving and hopeful story of the life-changing impact of the connections we form, by the international number one bestselling author Kristin Hannah.
Angie DeSaria has spent years of her life trying to have a child. Now, her marriage has crumbled under the strain. Adrift and alone, she returns to her childhood home, a small coastal town in the Pacific Northwest, to help try and rescue the beloved, failing family business.
Lauren Ribido is a senior in high school. She dreams of an Ivy League education, escaping her hometown and her troubled mother.
When Angie hires Lauren to work at the
restaurant, they form an immediate bond, which deepens when Lauren’s
mother abruptly leaves town and Angie offers her a place to stay.
But
nothing could have prepared Angie for the far-reaching repercussions of
this act of kindness. Together, these two women – one who longs for a
child and the other who longs for a mother’s love – will be tested in
ways that neither could have imagined.
