"In the Swiss mountains, Romi and Szibilla arrive at Nora's childhood home to find their longtime friend has retreated into silence.

Their mutual acquaintance will bring out their own insecurities as friends, lovers, and mothers, unexpectedly confronted with themselves and their own choices."--Provided by publisher.
