Cozy Winter Garden for Seniors

Meredith and Nina Whitson, two sisters, couldn't be more different. One stayed home to raise her children and manage the family business, while the other pursued her dream and became a renowned photojournalist by traveling the world. However, when their beloved father falls ill, these estranged sisters find themselves reunited, standing alongside their disapproving mother, Anya, who even now offers no comfort to her daughters.

On his deathbed, their father extracts a promise: Anya will tell her daughters a story, one she began years ago but never finished. This time, she will tell it all the way to the end. The tale their mother tells is unlike anything they've heard before – a captivating, mysterious love story that spans more than sixty years and moves from the frozen, war-torn Leningrad to modern-day Alaska.

Nina's obsession to uncover the truth will send them all on an unexpected journey into their mother's past, where they will discover a secret so shocking that it shakes the foundation of their family and changes how they perceive themselves. Mesmerizing from start to finish, "Winter Garden" is a rare novel – both an epic love story and an intimate portrait of women at a crossroads in their lives.

Evocative, lyrically written, and ultimately uplifting, the story will haunt the listener long after the last word is spoken. The Whitson sisters, Meredith and Nina, are as different as sisters can be, but their journey to uncover their mother's past will bring them closer together and reveal the power of family, love, and the resilience of the human spirit.
