A quiet town in Abruzzo hides a dark secret. Lucia, who unwittingly witnessed the tragedy thirty years ago, is forced to inherit the land where it all happened. Meanwhile, Lucia's daughter, Amanda, returns home from Milan, broken and withdrawn. Her mother wants to help her, support her, and protect her with her love, but her attempts prove futile: before she can be a support for her daughter, Lucia must come to terms with her own past.

In 2024, Donatella Di Pietrantonio's novel won the Strega, Italy's premier literary prize. This story is about the fragility of the human soul, forgiveness, healing, and hope. And about how a happy future is possible, even if the scars from difficult events experienced in youth are our only inheritance.
