The grief of others

Cohen, Leah Hager2013
Books, Manuscripts
We all have secrets, but what cost do they exact on a family? In the aftermath of their baby's death - just 57 hours after his birth - John and Ricky Ryrie struggle to regain a semblance of normalcy. But grief reawakens long-suppressed uncertainties about their relationship, their remaining children's behaviour becomes increasingly idiosyncratic and a secret emerges that reaches into their past and threatens their future. The family members remain isolated in private misery until a stranger arrives. And gradually, they come to see how the grief that is part of every human life can also draw us together.
