When Roy meets a wealthy widow online, he can hardly believe his luck.

After all, he's done this before.
As this remarkable feat of storytelling weaves together Roy's and Betty's futures, it also unwinds the past. Dancing across more than half a centurydecades that encompass unthinkable cruelty, extraordinary resilience, and remarkable kindnessit takes us right back to the beginning of their very different lives, following the twists and turns through childhood, an adolescence and young adulthood indelibly marked by war, and an adult existence carved out amid a world still reeling from its aftermath.
As Roy's sins stack up against the burdens Betty carries, it becomes a story of salvation, and survivaland for Roy and Betty, there is a reckoning to be made when the endgame of Roy's crooked plot plays out. Some things can never be forgotten. Or forgiven.
