Two estranged sisters reunite in an emotional novel of family, forgiveness, lost hope, and new beginnings. They had a forever bond, until a sudden tragedy thrust them apart. Now, each at a crossroad in her own life, two sisters' paths are about to intersect. Broadcast journalist Julia Frank has it all: a career, an ambitious fiancé, and the hard-won respect of her peers. Until a ruinous decision destroys her reputation, puts her job at risk, and sends her reeling toward the only soul left to turn to: her estranged sister, Ginny. The owner of a clandestine supper club hidden in the Arizona desert, Ginny Frank has a lot on her plate. The last thing she wants is more drama--or the burden of nursing her younger sister's wounded ego. But family is family. Besides, Ginny can use the help in more ways than one, and she's going to make sure Julia pulls her weight. As a tenuous reunion reopens old wounds, Julia and Ginny have no choice but to confront the pain and betrayals of the past. Will working to keep the secret supper club running be just what they need to find common ground and a path toward forgiveness, or will the increasing stress push them even further apart?

Rosa Luxemburg, Hannah Arendt und 'Agnes Heller repräsentieren, wenn auch nicht als dessen typische Vertreterinnen, politisches Denken im 20. Jahrhundert. Dieses reflektierten sie, kritisierten sie; alle drei standen eher in Opposition zum sie umgebenden philosophischen Zeitgeist. Sie alle drei - und auch das verbindet sie - suchten in ihrer jeweiligen Zeit die Frage zu beantworten: Wie können Menschen frei und selbstverwirklicht zusammen leben? Sie fanden darauf eine, in ihren Details durchaus unterschiedliche, gemeinsame Antwort: Nur ein „Jemand“ vermag es, Selbstverwirklichung und Freiheit mit dem Zusammenleben in einer Gemeinschaft zu verbinden. Ihre unterschiedlichen Perspektiven, Luxemburgs strukturelle, Arendts intersubjektive und Hellers individuelle Sichtweise, erhellen einander und machen dieses Denken auch für unsere Zeit fruchtbar.
