● 內文簡介

Luke Bellingham gets a List of Lost Souls-the kids from his high school class who have dropped out of sight-and calls a girl who has haunted his memory for twenty-five years, a girl he barely knew…

Blair Clemens is a struggling single mother with a teenage daughter, a job as a chef, and a tragic secret that will test all of her emotional resources. Luke Bellingham has fulfilled his promise and is one of the country's most acclaimed screenwriters. Luke and Blair haven't laid eyes on each other for decades, but back in the 1960s, they went to the same West Coast high school.

Now, for a class reunion, Luke impul-sively contacts a woman who has always intrigued him. And before she Knows what hit her, Blair is faced with the decision of her lifetime: what to do when the right man comes along…but at the wrong time.

Introducing a brilliant new voice in American fiction, ON A NIGHT LIKE THIS shows us something extraordinary about dealing with the hardest things we ever have to face, finding strength we didn't know we had…and discovering that what really matters has no rules, time limits, or end.
