A Parting of the Ways - Rachel Crowther
An "intelligently written and thought-provoking" novel of two women, an abandoned baby, a long-ago trauma, and a confrontation with truth (Cambridge Journal).
When they were nineteen, taking a summer journey along the British coast, Olivia and Eve found a newborn baby in a phone box.
The trip had been filled with adventures, arguments, and friendship. But that day marked the end of it all. The baby could have drawn them together, but instead, the trauma of its story pushed them dramatically apart. A few days later, Olivia and Eve went their separate ways and never spoke to each other again.
Twenty-five years later, their lives have gone in very different directions. But when a mutual friend writes to tell Olivia she's getting married, Olivia knows the moment is coming when she and Eve will have to see each other again-and face the truth of what happened that summer, and what it has done to them . . .
