Hardback -While walking home from work one evening, Jeff Manning is struck by a car and killed. Not one but two women fall to pieces at the news: his wife, Claire, and his co-worker Tish. Reeling from her loss, Claire must comfort her grieving son and deal with funeral arrangements, well-meaning family members and the arrival of Jeff's estranged brother -- her ex-boyfriend -- Tim. With Tish's co-workers in the dark about her connection to Jeff outside the workplace, she volunteers to attend the funeral on the company's behalf, but only she knows the true risk of inserting herself into the wreckage of Jeff's life. Told through the three voices of Jeff, Tish, and Claire, Hidden explores the complexity of relationships, choices made in the heat of the moment, and the long-term responsibilities we have to the ones we love.
Summary:
After Jeff Manning suddenly dies, two women who loved him--his wife, Claire, and his co-worker, Tish--are both sent reeling and must figure out how to cope.
