Forty years ago, Ann Fawkes published her first, and last, novel. Now, Ann lives a reclusive life in the San Juan Islands, hiding from the public and its probing questions. When podcaster Maggie Whitaker convinces Ann to sit for an interview, Ann agrees on one condition: Maggie must keep her story off the record. Determined to change Ann's mind before she loses her job, Maggie agrees. But as she learns about Ann's life--particularly the love affair that inspired her novel and the decisions she made in its wake--Maggie realizes Ann's story intersects with her own in shocking, life-changing ways.
