Summary
A girl who barely knew her dead mother teaches herself to become her. The voice off old home videos. The tilt of her head. The way she went first at everything. She studies the dead woman until she can walk into the dark and be the wife her father is still grieving. And he lets her. God, does he let her.
Wren will do anything to reach the mother she lost, even to the one place that woman is still alive: in the hands of the man who loved her most. A first-person descent into grief, willful blindness, and taking the place of the woman you were never meant to replace. No villains in it, and no coming back the same.
