A town called Solace / Mary Lawson.

Lawson, Mary, 1946- (author.).

Summary:

Sixteen-year-old Rose has gone missing, and her adoring seventeen-year-old sister Clara is bewildered and distraught. Clara's sole comfort is Moses, the cat next door belonging to elderly Mrs. Orchard, who went into the hospital weeks ago and still has not returned. Enter Liam Kane, in his mid-thirties, newly divorced, newly arrived in this small northern town, who moves into Mrs. Orchard's house -- where, in Clara's view, he emphatically does not belong. At the end of her life, Elizabeth Orchard is thinking about a crime committed thirty years ago, with tragic consequences for two families and one small child. And she desperately wants to make amends before she dies. This masterful, suspenseful, and darkly funny novel uncovers layers of grief, remorse, and love to reveal the surprising connections between these three unforgettable characters. -- From back cover.
