From the back cover

Three years ago, Ian found his wife Joanna in bed with his childhood best friend Brett. Fleeing into the rain, he was struck by a truck and woke in the ICU with irreversible deafness. His father and sister Heather made Brett swear to leave for Europe and never return, while Joanna stayed at Ian's side, learning sign language and promising to be his ears.

Now, secretly fitted with a working cochlear implant, Ian plans an anniversary surprise. At dinner, he hears what he was never meant to hear: Joanna asking whether Brett is waiting at the hotel with Toby, and his own family laughing that he cannot hear them. Brett never left. The boy he shares with Joanna has just turned three.

At the Grandview Hotel, Ian watches a birthday party and a family portrait that excludes him, and learns his deafness was treated as a convenient shield. He returns home before dawn, saying nothing, as Joanna and his family bring Brett and Toby into his house.

My father and my sister, Heather, forced Brett to his knees beside my hospital bed.
