"Gus, a painter, and her husband Owen, a writer, have been living contentedly in semi-seclusion in rural Pennsylvania for several years now. The arrival of a new neighbour, however, changes their dynamics as Gus realizes she's lonely and frustrated with Owen -- and begins to confide in her new friend. Their marriage, not as stable as Gus had thought, is further threatened when the neighbour's daughter visits and becomes infatuated with Owen. Tension rises throughout this "irresistibly readable" (Publishers Weekly) debut novel, which offers multi-dimensional characters and a discerning depiction of long-standing relationships."
