With unerring insight and emotional power, Belva Plain, in her extraordinary novel, tells the story of a family divided and of the proud matriarch who takes a bold last stand to unite her warring children in what may be their last Homecoming. It is a crisp December day when Annette Byrne walks to the end of her long, curving driveway and drops five sealed envelopes into the mailbox, quickly, before second thoughts stay her hand.nbsp;nbsp;Shortly thereafter, with the holidays approaching, her estranged family will be gathered at her country estate for the first time in years. The sons. . . two brothers embittered by a breach of ethics, honor, and trust.nbsp;nbsp;The grandchildren. . . one young couple on the verge of divorce; another, lovingly united against the parents who have tarnished their lives.nbsp;nbsp;As the ill-fated meeting hurtles toward a bitter and abrupt conclusion, not even Annette Byrne's indomitable will can heal the rift--until a shattering event alters the landscape forever.

As always, Ms. Plain is a master storyteller. She has developed a heart-warming plot, various interesting characters, in an interesting setting.
