A #1 New York Times and USA Today bestseller from Jodi Picoult, author of By Any Other Name, Hollow Bones is a sweeping novel about family, crisis and the stories we tell ourselves in order to survive.
Molly Fitzgerald was only two months old when her mother went to an appointment at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, and never came home. Raised by a loving father and stepmother, Molly nevertheless grows up with a deep awareness of how suddenly disaster can change everything.
As an adult, she channels that fear into her work leading the Rhode Island Department for Emergency Preparedness, developing plans designed to save lives during storms, epidemics, plane crashes and other crises. Her husband, Jesse, is a police polygraph expert with his own complicated history, and together they have built a marriage that feels like a place of safety in an unpredictable world.
Then the unexpected disrupts the life they have created, forcing both Molly and Jesse to question what they thought they understood about themselves, their relationship and the past.
Moving between past and present, Hollow Bones explores the risks people take to protect those they love, the narratives that shape their lives and the powerful, complicated bonds between mothers and daughters.
