There is no funeral for a child who is still alive.
They lost their son without losing him. Now they must keep grief from taking their marriage, too.
Sylvia and Walt Calloway have spent thirty-five years building a life together in Calder’s Cove. But when their only son ends all contact without explanation, the silence enters their home—and settles between them.
Sylvia pours her grief into a manuscript written during the dark hours. Walt retreats to the dock before dawn, trying to repair a loss no set of tools can touch. They still love each other. They simply no longer know how to carry the same heartbreak together.
As accusations, threats, and a police complaint close in, Sylvia and Walt must choose whether to survive separately—or reach across the growing space between them and choose each other again.
Because some love stories aren’t about falling.
They’re about refusing to let go.
