Amie is a straight enigma. May is a cherished memory, Kitty too good to be true, and Kate? Kate is a problem, a potential asset too talented to ignore but too apt to take her own path to be entirely trusted.

Hypnotic storyteller Alex Brightsmith presents a portrait of Kathryn Blake – who she is, who she was, and who she might become – through the expertly interwoven tales of ten finely characterized narrators.
