Description
A brightly fun and incredibly moving novel about three bickering adult siblings rebuilding their family in the wake of tragedy.
Murray Blair had some serious matters to discuss this weekend, and he wanted things to run smoothly. Though the adult Blair siblings have agreed to keep things calm and amiable on a trip to stay with their elderly father, each arrives, in true Blair style, with a secret agenda. But plans are derailed when Lizzie, the youngest, turns up late with a burnt hand, impending criminal charges, and a damp family cookbook: Fannie Farmer's Boston Cooking School. The now ruined cookbook is the last vestige of a more idyllic time, and a mother whose handwritten notes are their last link to her after the accident years ago. The Blair siblings will learn that there’s more to their mother's story than they could have anticipated…
