Jo Becker has every reason to be content. She has three dynamic daughters, a loving marriage, and a rewarding career. But she feels a sense of unease. Then an old housemate reappears, sending Jo back to a distant past when she lived in a communal house in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Drawn deeper into her memories of that fateful summer in 1968, Jo begins to obsess about the person she once was. As she is pulled farther from her present life, her husband, and her world, Jo struggles against becoming enveloped by her past and its dark secret.

I'm not sure how this got on my "read" list but wish it hadn't. seems people either loved it or not. not too much in between. I read it all the way to the end waiting for something to happen. it did not grab me at all, I thought it was boring, and I thought the main character was selfish and really concerned only about herself. Which also seems to be echoed by her daughters throughout. Way too much description and a lot of sections you can skip over. sorry but this was not my cup of tea.
And now i've just realized why it was on my list,...was an Oprahs book club choice and sorry to say, I rarely like her choices
