Description
The emotion of BLUE SISTERS meets the what-if spectacle of Matt Haig's work in this deeply moving story about two siblings communicating between this world and the next
When Esther’s beloved brother Brendan dies in a cycling accident, she is devastated. Four months later, he stops by her flat for a visit. “I need to talk to you,” Brendan tells her.
The siblings have one hundred minutes to spend together before Brendan's spirit must move on. But as Brendan tries to figure out how and when he can appear to Esther, he mistakenly enters her life at different time periods. Sometimes he joins the present, but at other times he lands in their childhood and teenage years, times that were difficult for his sensitive, troubled sister—times that their parents have always tried to keep under wraps.
But as their minutes together tick away, the siblings realize that their family's emphasis on keeping a stiff upper lip has allowed their parents to hide a shocking family secret that might change everything for Esther.
ONE HUNDRED MINUTES MORE is a poignant, engrossing story about the bond that can only exist between two people who grew up in the same home with all its peculiarities and rules, and about the courage it takes to break free of the past and claim a new future.
