Before the Storm
A long-lost sister. Their parents’ mysterious disappearance.
It’s time for a reckoning. It’s time to start again.
It’s been years since Tara spoke to her sister and ex-best-friend Josie. But out of the blue Josie calls — and it isn’t good news.
Josie has cancer.
Tara rushes from Nantucket Island to Manhattan to sit by her sister’s bed and learn more about her diagnosis. Josie says it point-blank: she’s tired of fighting the cancer. She wants to stop treatment.
Tara refuses to accept this. She begs Josie to come back to Nantucket, so that Tara can take care of her — and they can investigate another treatment plan. Together.
But Josie has other plans.
Twenty years ago on a snowy night in December, Josie and Tara’s parents abandoned their daughters without telling them where they were going. The horror of that event has cast a shadow over Josie and Tara’s lives, one they can’t escape.
When Josie suggests she and Tara reach out to their parents for the first time since that night, Tara balks.
How can they ever forgive their parents?
How can they resolve the past?
But through travel and conversation and acceptance, Tara begins to realize just how much she’s hidden herself away over the years.
She stopped living.
And maybe reuniting with her parents will help her forgive herself.
Maybe it will help her to move on. Finally.
Before the Storm is book six of the Salt Sisters series, a heart-wrenching yet hopeful family drama that unfolds on the glittering shores of Nantucket Island.
