Longlisted for the prestigious Jann Medlicott Acorn Prize for Fiction at the Ockham New Zealand Book Awards 2021, this captivating debut from a bold New Zealand talent takes readers on a poignant journey of love, loss, and resilience.
When an affair ends in disaster and derails her career, 26-year-old Erin flees Auckland to spend the holiday weekend with her aunt, uncle, and terminally ill mother at their suburban family home. Upon her arrival, she discovers that her mother has made a heartbreaking decision—to end her life. Tasked with fulfilling her mother's final wishes, Erin must navigate a complex web of emotions, an eccentric neighborhood, and her complicated family of former competitive swimmers. In this poignant tale, she must draw upon the strength she would typically find in the water as she prepares for the inevitable loss of the fiery, independent woman who raised her alone and one final swim together in the chilly waters of New Zealand.
