Rachel and Drew Now may be sisters, but their lives have followed completely different paths. Rachel is happily married but hasn't returned to her childhood home since she was kicked out by her strict father, Killian, after an act of careless teenage rebellion. Drew, her younger sister, has followed her passion for music but longs for the stability that has always eluded her. Unlike Rachel, she has always been welcome enough at hr parents' home but finds she rarely has a reason to go. While both sisters recall how close they once were, the distance between them now seems more than they can bridge. When their deferential Japanese mother, Hikari, is diagnosed with dementia. the sisters must come together to locate a particular book she asks for in a rare moment of lucidity. The book--an epic sage of love, loss, and conflict in twelfth-century Japan, which tells the tale of a real-life female samurai Tomoe Gozen--reveals truth about Drew's and Rachel's relationship that resonates across the centuries, connecting them in ways that can turn their differences into their strongest assets.
