Diving into Light

Every summer throughout childhood, Florence would return to her family home on the west coast of France, where she would be joined by her exotic, hopelessly glamorous cousins. Life here, under the benevolent eye of her grandmother Mimi, was a heady existence of illicit drinking, stolen kisses and the bittersweet pains of first love. But now Florence is living completely alone with her new baby. Haunted by nightmares, she cannot open her grandmother's letters. What devastating truth do they hold? Why has she turned her back on her past? And will she and Mimi ever escape the guilt that is tearing them apart?
