    • Abstract:
      In 1957, however, Todd receives a new posting at a U.S. airbase in England, close to where Ruby grew up, and they move there with their 12-year-old twins, Hedy and Christopher. Life on the base is lonely and claustrophobic - as Christopher claims to hear screams and see mysterious lights, and as Todd's behavior grows increasingly erratic, the family arrives at a breaking point that leaves Hedy on her own, contending with profound losses. Portions of the early sections are presented from Ruby's and Christopher's points of view, but as the narrative develops, it becomes Hedy's story of reclaiming the truth and redefining the past.
