Its about four sisters that all have careers and live in different parts of the world. They come home for a reunion and to a tragedy that brought them all together for the next year and how their lives changed for the better. It shows what the love of 4 sisters and their father endure in life. I am trying to not spill the beans of the main part. Its a very heart warming book to read. I loved it. I also have 4 sisters counting me.
