"There are good things and bad about being part of a big Italian family in a small American town. Good things and bad, and mostly you couldn't get a cigarette paper in the gap between them. That's because they're the same things."
When Robbie Giraldi drags himself reluctantly back to his dilapidated hometown, it's definitely just for a visit, and the only bright spot he foresees is an opportunity to reconnect with his brother Cris. He doesn't expect to promise anybody he'll come home for keeps, and he doesn't know how he's gonna deliver on the pledge he's made...
Cris, on the other hand, knows he's back for good. His marriage and career are both emphatically over, his plans for the future in ruins. Always the steady, reliable son, he's increasingly shouldering the burdens of older relatives, while keeping characteristically silent about his grief, his loneliness, and his growing resentment of Robbie's apparently charmed life...
A story about family, betrayal and forgiveness - and about truly coming home.
