Book description
Don and Louise's eighteen-year-old daughter Miranda has died in a
sailing accident. While Louise takes steps to move on with her life,
Don cannot come to terms with the chain of events that led to her
death. Instead, he is determined to bring someone to account. The
surviving children handle the loss of their sister better than their
parents, but what they can't handle is their family being torn apart...
Taut, heartbreaking and immensely moving, Over is a novel
about love and loss, grief and hope, pain and resolution, and about
what happens to human beings when tragedy strikes like lightening.
