Based on a True Story. "Some love stories begin with a glance across a room. Hers began with a ghost whispering warnings in the night." Chrissie, a woman with the strange and aching gift of second sight, falls deeply in love with a widower named Robert. But their romance is quickly shadowed by Serafina; his dead wife who visits Chrissie with haunting accusations: murder, betrayal, and the unspeakable past. The Widower is a story of love twisted by grief, shattered by fear, and illuminated; years later by the soft, unrelenting light of truth. A novel for anyone who has loved hard, lost deeply, and suffered with obsessive love.
