Ten years later, Kate Mason receives a text from her dead son…
Kate’s husband and her six-year-old son died in a train collision. Burying herself in work, she became one of the most proficient in her career. Therapy, meditation, yoga, traveling, and bitter pills never helped, though. Her capacity to love — even herself — shrunk to nothingness.
