Produktbeschreibung

When the past finally catches up, the heart must decide what to holdand what to let go.

For Maya Chen, a devoted academic librarian in Seattle, life has always been defined by quiet order, safe distance, and the comfort of routines that never ask too much of her. But everything changes the afternoon a stranger steps out of a storm and into her library.

Benjamin Ashford, a physics professor searching for a set of lost letters between two Japanese-American scientists, needs help locating a piece of intellectual history. What he finds instead is a woman whose careful stillness hides an entire world of abandoned questionsespecially the unanswered story of her own father, the elusive physicist Kenji Nakamura, whose name she has spent her whole life avoiding.

As Maya and Benjamin unravel the decades-old correspondence, they discover more than scientific argumentsthey uncover confessions, longing, and a profound meditation on distance, belonging, and the fragile ways human beings try to connect.
And in the raw honesty of those letters, Maya finds a part of herself she never knew she lost.

But connection is its own kind of risk.

Drawn together with breathtaking intensity, Maya and Benjamin must confront the patterns that have shaped their lives: his lifelong fear of vulnerability, her inherited instinct to protect herself by staying hidden, and the possibility that love requires letting someone see the parts of you you've never dared reveal.

When illness pulls Maya back to San Francisco and the future becomes uncertain, both of them must choosecling to the distance that once kept them safe, or step into a new life where closeness is no longer the enemy.
