  • "Hours after Arlyn Singer's father dies she meets John Moody. She thinks he will fulfil her romantic dreams of the perfect future; he doesn't realise that she will haunt him for the rest of his life. Years later, Arlyn is gone, and Meredith Weiss arrives at the Moody house. John and Arlyn's son Sam, now a teenager, is careening down a path of drug-fuelled self-destruction, while John Moody is tormented by visions of a red-haired woman in white. Meredith sets out to save this troubled family. But will her devotion be enough to keep them from the fate they seem to have chosen for themselves? Love, lust, passion and dreams live alongside shattered hearts, escape and anger within a family trapped in a prison of their own making."

  • "Two opposites attract each other. Arlyn Singer and John Moody get married and have a family. As a family they are traveling down some paths that shouldn't be taken."
  • "On the night her father dies, Arlyn is certain that the man she is meant to be with will walk into her life. But fate seems to be playing a trick when John Moody knocks on her door to ask for directions. Cool, practical, and deliberate, John is dreamy Arlyn's polar opposite. Yet the two are drawn powerfully together even when it is clear they are bound to bring each other grief. Their marriage is dangerous territory, tracing a map no one should follow. It leads them and their children to a house made of glass in the Connecticut countryside, to the rooftops and avenues of Manhattan, and to the blue waters of Long Island Sound, all in a search for family and identity. Walking this path of ruin and redemption are Sam, their son, a brilliant, explosive artist who is drawn to self-destruction and dreams; Blanca, the beautiful loner who tries desperately to protect her brother from his destiny and lives her own life in a world of books; and Will, the grandson, who is left a legacy of broken pieces he needs to put together, an emotional and mysterious puzzle made up of people who don't know the first thing about love. Here is a family so real, so tragic, so devoted, it is as if they have written their own riveting history-a quest for love and truth. Glass breaks, love hurts, and families make their own rules."@en
  • "General Adult.
