The story of a family, three siblings, and an accident that changes their lives forever.

That night, they were so proud to go out with their older brother – all three of them together for the first time. Mona wore heels to look older. Antonin shaved his peach fuzz hoping it would grow back thicker. They had a few beers and played Caps at a local café. They had a great time together. On the way home, they took the country road along the coastline. Egged on by his friends in the cars behind him, Gabriel drove fast. It became a race and Gabriel did not want to lose.
Miraculously, Antonin was unscathed. His brother Gabriel didn't get so lucky. As for Mona, her backbone was severed right through to the cord.
This poignant first novel is the story of Gabriel, Mona and Antonin, before and after the accident: Mourning, a long slow recovery, and finding the force to love each other and themselves once again.
