Three teenagers have been drinking. One of them gets behind the wheel of a car, and, in an instant, everything on Division Street changes.

In Dani Shapiro's first work of fiction in fifteen years, she returns to the form that launched her career, with a riveting, deeply felt novel that examines the ties that bind families together--and the secrets that can break them apart.
