One woman runs from her past, as another tries to escape her future; a young boy holds close a terrible secret, and a father does everything he can to protect him.Two cars collide on a foggy highway, and a woman dies. The survivor, Isabelle, is left to pick up the pieces, not only of her own life, but of the lives of the devastated husband and fragile son that the other woman, April, has left behind. Together, they try to solve the mystery of where April was running to, and why. As these three lives intersect, questions arise: How well do we really know those we love-and how do we forgive the unforgivable?

From the Author:
Pictures of You began from a phobia. My dirty little secret is I don't drive. Oh, I have my license (all I had to do to get it was to drive around the block), but I'm anxious around cars. The novel began with an image of a crash, and I found myself giving my phobia to Isabelle, one of the characters. Of course, it being fiction, I made things much worse for her! While she was working through her phobia, yet another piece of my past intruded: my childhood asthma, something I wanted to revisit as much as I wanted to have root canal without novocaine. But the character of asthmatic little Sam persisted, and by giving him compassion, I healed my own shame about my past--and I actually felt better for the four years it took me to write the book! A San Francisco Editor's Choice Lit Pick, Pictures of You is now out in the world. I hope you'll read it.
