Saskia and Jenny - twins - are alike in appearance only. Saskia is a grad student with a single-minded focus on her studies, while Jenny is glamorous, thrill-seeking and capricious. Still, when Jenny is severely injured in an accident, Saskia puts her life on hold to be with her. Sara and Mattie are sisters. Mattie, who is
younger, is intellectually disabled. Sara loves nothing more than fine wines, perfumes and expensive clothing, and leaves home at the first opportunity. But when tragedy unfolds, Sara's life changes irrevocably. Through a cascade of circumstances as devastating as they are unexpected, Sara and Saskia's lives are braided together and changed forever.
Annabel Lyon is a novelist and short-story writer. Her works include The Golden Mean, which has been translated into fourteen languages and won the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize. She is an Associate Professor of Creative Writing at the University of British Columbia.
