In this debut novel, 33-year-old Addie Lockwood bears and surrenders for
adoption a son, her only child, without telling his father, little
imagining how the secret will shape their lives. Through letters and
spare, precisely observed vignettes, Byrd explores a birth mother’s
coming to make and live with the most difficult, intimate, and
far-reaching of choices.

Advance Praise
“Brilliant writing—lively and heartbreaking at every turn.” —Jill McCorkle, author of Life After Life
"There are books we like to read because they provide a window to a world wholly unfamiliar, but there are others like Byrd that give insight into our own lives: our hopes and dreams, what we’ve done right, opportunities missed." --David W. Schweid, BookPage
