Evening by Nessa Rapoport
Eve is summoned home by her distraught family to mourn the death of her sister, Tam. Eve bears the burden of a secret: Two weeks before Tam died, Eve and Tam argued so vehemently that they did not speak again. Her sister was famous, acclaimed for her career as a TV journalist. But Tam, too, had a secret, revealed the day after the funeral, one that inverts the story Eve has told herself since their childhood. In the aftermath, Eve is forced to revise her version of her fractured family, her sister s accomplishments and vaunted marriage, and her own impeded ambition in work and love.
