By the Sunday Times best-selling author of The Lie. Forbidden love, intimate betrayal and the devastating power of exposure drive Helen Dunmore's remarkable new title.

In this audiobook, Ellen shares her desires to connect with her husband and family, and to discover her own strength by training for a marathon. Ellen describes the woodlands where she loves to run and the cave that fascinates her throughout life. The landscape is both inviting and haunting, intoxicating Ellen to stay in that place while her husband is assigned to an Army post in another state. Ellen longs for their daughter to connect with him beyond photographs and Skype calls.
