Pulitzer Prize-winner author
The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls returns to North Bath and to the characters that captured the hearts and imaginations of millions in his beloved bestsellers Nobody’s Fool and Everybody’s Fool.
Ten years after the death of the magnetic Donald 'Sully' Sullivan, the town of North Bath is going through a major transition as it is taken over by its much wealthier neighbour, Schuyler Springs. Peter, Sully's son, is still grappling with his father's tremendous legacy as well as his relationship to his own son, Thomas, wondering if he has been all that different a father than Sully was to him.
Meanwhile, the towns' newly consolidated police department falls into the hands of Charice Bond following the resignation of Doug Raymer, the former North Bath police chief and Charice's ex-boyfriend.
When a decomposing body turns up in the abandoned hotel situated between the two towns, Charice and Raymer are drawn together again and forced to address their complicated attraction to one another. Across town, Ruth, Sully's married ex-lover, struggles to understand her granddaughter, Tina, and her growing obsession with Peter's other son, Will. Amidst the turmoil, the town's residents speculate on the identity of the unidentified body and wonder who among their number could have disappeared unnoticed.
'An engaging plot that sensitively and insightfully explores themes of grief and reconciliation ...'
Library Journal
'Russo's version of the good old-fashioned comic novel is the gold standard, full of heart and dexterous storytelling.'
Kirkus Reviews
'There have never been fools in Russo's world, just lovely, relatable people navigating foolish situations.'
Booklist
'A writer of great comedy and warmth.'
