"If your mother was missing, would you tell the police? Even if the most obvious suspect was your father? This is the dilemma facing the four grown Delaney siblings. A novel that looks at marriage, sibling rivalry, and the lies we tell others and ourselves"-- Stan and Joy Delaney are killers on the tennis court, and off it their chemistry is palpable. But after fifty years of marriage, they've finally sold their famed tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives. The four Delaney children-- Amy, Logan, Troy, and Brooke-- were tennis stars in their own right. None of them had what it took to go all the way, but they're all successful grown-ups. Then a stranger named Savannah knocks on Stan and Joy's door, bleeding after a fight with her boyfriend, and the Delaneys help her. Later, when Joy goes missing, Savannah is nowhere to be found. The police question the one person who remains: Stan. He's hiding something, and soon all of the Delaneys will reexamine their shared family history in a very new light. -- adapted from jacket
