Theo Harper and his pregnant wife, Darla, head upstate to their summer cottage to wait out the lock down. Not everyone has this privilege: not Xavier, the teenager in the Cardi B t-shirt in their building, nor Darla's best friend Ruby and her partner Katsumi, who are trying to save their Michelin-starred fusion restaurant. Upstate, while hiking on the aptly named Devil's Path, Theo divulges a long-held secret about his heritage--and when Darla disappears after the ensuing argument, Theo becomes the prime suspect. As Darla and Theo's families and friends come together to search for her, with Ruby and Katsumi often trying to broker the peace, past and present collide with startling consequences. For many brought back into the fold by Darla's disappearance--even those glimpsed fleetingly in the building lobby--it is a chance to renew connections or to review distances--what brings them together, and what sets them apart.". 20240909.
