Résumé

Piper Parrish's life on frick island - a tiny, remote town smack in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay-is nearly perfect. Well, aside from one pesky detail : Her beloved husband, Tom, is dead. When Tom's crab boat capsized and his body wasn't recovered, Piper, rocked to the core, did a most peculiar thing : carried on as if her husband were not only still alive but right there beside her. She cooked him breakfast, walked him to the docks each morning, and met him for their standard weekly dinner date at the One-Eyed Crab.
And what were the townspeople to do but go along with their beloved widowed Piper ? Anders Caldwell's career is not going well. An ambitious young journalist, he'd hoped to be a national award-winning podcaster by now rather than writing fluff pieces for a small-town newspaper. But when he gets an assignment to travel to remote Frick Island and cover their boring annual Cake Walk fundraiser, he stumbles upon a much more fascinating tale : an entire town pretending to see and interact with a man who does not actually exist.
Convinced it's the career-making story he needs for his podcast, Anders returns to the island to begin covert research and spend more time with the enigmatic Piper—but he has no idea that out of all the lives he's about to upend, it's his that will change the most. USA Today bestselling author Colleen Oakley delivers on unforgettable love story about an eccentric community, a grieving widow, and an outsider who slowly learns that sometimes faith is more important than the facts.
