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. At the same time, Lucia's daughter, Amanda, returns home from Milan broken and withdrawn.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 remain fruitless: before becoming a support for her daughter, Lucia needs to deal with her own past.

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