After "The Book Thief," the long-awaited new novel by Markus Zusak: unexpected, stirring, and beautiful. This is the story of the five Dunbar brothers. After the death of their beloved mother and the departure of their father, they live by their own rules. They grieve, they love, they hate, they hope, and they search. For a way to come to terms with their past, for the truth, and for forgiveness. Ultimately, it is Clay – driven by the memories of their tragic loss – who decides to build a bridge. A bridge to overcome the past and thus save himself and his family. For this, he demands everything he can give, and more: nothing less than a miracle.
