Summary Sam was abandoned at the beach by her mother, when she was thirteen. One minute she was surfing the waves and the next her mother and little sister were gone, leaving Sam homeless. Years later, a coma patient is brought into the hospital where Sam works, and Sam believes the woman to be her mother. But before she can discover whether this is true or not, she must sort out her own confused memories of that traumatic day on the beach. This is a provocative novel about the nature of love and memory, and how the truth can be what we make it
