A new poignant and breathtaking novel from the author of The Things We Keep and The Secrets of Midwives.

With
every book, Sally Hepworth becomes more and more known for her searing
emotional portraits of families—and the things that test their bonds. In
The Mother’s Promise, she delivers her most powerful novel yet:
the story of a single mother who is dying, the troubled teenaged
daughter who is battling her own demons, and the two women who come into
their lives at the most critical moment.

Alice and her daughter
Zoe have been a family of two all their lives. Zoe has always struggled
with crippling social anxiety and her mother has been her constant and
fierce protector. With no family to speak of, and the identity of Zoe’s
father shrouded in mystery, their team of two works—until it doesn’t.
Until Alice gets sick and is given a grim prognosis.

Desperate
to find stability for Zoe, Alice reaches out to two women who are
practically strangers, but who are her only hope: Kate, her oncology
nurse, and Sonja, a social worker. As the four of them come together, a
chain of events is set into motion and all four of them must confront
their sharpest fears and secrets—secrets about abandonment, abuse,
estrangement, and the deepest longing for family. Imbued with heart and
humor in even the darkest moments, The Mother’s Promise is an unforgettable novel about the power of love and forgiveness.

What readers are saying:

“Part
tearjerker, part celebration of mothers, this story tugs at the
heartstrings…a beautiful novel of courage and love in the face of
sorrow.”—Booklist

 

“This
bittersweet, emotionally intense novel is recommended for readers who
appreciate issue-driven stories by Jodi Picoult and Lisa Genova.”—Library Journal

 

“Hepworth
intertwines these women’s stories, taking the notion that it takes a
village to raise a child another step: it takes a village to raise each
woman up over her own tribulations.”—Kirkus Reviews
