Tenderness: A Novel
$27.02 online at Bookshop.org
On a remote Virginia island, family and friends gather for the wedding of Shay O'Connor and Andrew Pruitt. Guests whisper about the bride, who recently left the headline-making cult Synanon. Why would an Ivy League graduate with a wealthy fiancée join, and has she really escaped? Told through Shay, her brother William, and longtime friend Joel, this slow-burn mystery excavates dark family histories and romantic regrets. As the day approaches, Joel and William pull at loose threads and find a greater threat on the island than the secrets each is keeping. Set in the tinderbox 1970s, Tenderness asks if we can ever see ourselves or the people we love for who they truly are.
