Three years after the death of their beloved brother, all Daniel's sisters have left of him are their memories. They know he's helped others by donating his organs, but as miracles come true for the recipients, his own family are struggling with their devastating loss.
When Clare suggests that they find the people Daniel's death saved, her sisters have their doubts. Will meeting them help to bring the sisters back together, or will old tensions and surfacing secrets splinter the fragile family ties forever?

Customer Reviews
Thought provoking book
I’m glad I read this book & enjoyed it very much. This is a very diverse family of 4sisters & 1 much beloved brother. Their mother died much too young. Father followed a few years later, mostly from a broken heart. The brother is murdered in his early 20s which is where the book truly begins. The sisters have nothing in common except for the deep love & affection for the brother that was close to each of them in different ways. He is a registered donor & they discover that in death, he has not only profoundly changed his sister’s lives, but through his donation, he has changed at least 20 other lives. This book reaches deep into your psyche & makes you think of the effects that we can make in the lives of others. I highly recommend reading this book.
