Twenty-eight-year-old Margaret travels to Kenya with her new husband James with the intention of staying a year. In a dizzying multicultural city, she struggles to maintain her balance as her sense of self, her marriage, and her understanding of the world are shaken to the core. Invited on a climbing expedition to Mt. Kenya, the newlyweds are caught up in a horrific accident. In its aftermath, Margaret must try to understand exactly what happened on that mountain and what it has done to her and to her marriage. A major author in terms of critical acclaim and bestseller status, Anita Shreve searches out the secrets at the core of our closest relationships and the ways in which lives can turn on the axis of a single catastrophic event.
