A family of people who all have secrets discover through flashbacks what had happened in their mothers life.
The end of the book felt a little rushed. Every character got their ending quite quickly. I would have preferred a more open ending

"They don't tell you how to live with this kind of anger, this prickly feeling under your skin. That's the thing about false narratives that ultimately define your life. When you finally learn that you've been lied to for years by the people you've trusted the most, even when you can see why they might have done it, that awareness contaminates every other relationship you have."
Moderate: Abandonment, Suicide attempt, Terminal illness, Rape, and Pregnancy
