From Little Stack
The only thing worse than being stuck with your dysfunctional family over the holidays? Being forced together to quarantine, as the Birch family discovers in this witty and heartwarming book.
Doctor Olivia returns to the home of her parents, Emma and Andrew, on orders to quarantine for a week after treating an epidemic overseas. Her sister Phoebe has her own concerns, as does her father, who is drowning in nostalgia and regret. But it’s the revelation of a shocking secret and an unexpected guest that really pushes them over the edge. Curl up under a cozy blanket and discover what happens.
A family can't escape their secrets when they're forced to spend a week in quarantine in this novel. It's Christmas, and for the first time in years the entire Birch family will be under one roof. Even Emma and Andrew's elder daughter—who is usually off saving the world—will be joining them at Weyfield Hall.
But Olivia, a doctor, is only coming home because she has to. She's just returned from treating an epidemic abroad and has been told she must stay in quarantine for a week...and so too should her family.
For the next seven days, the Birches are locked down, cut off from the rest of humanity, and forced into each other's orbits. Younger, unabashedly frivolous daughter Phoebe is fixated on her upcoming wedding, while Olivia deals with the culture shock of first-world problems. As Andrew sequesters himself in his study writing scathing restaurant reviews and remembering his glory days as a war correspondent, Emma hides a secret that will turn the whole family upside down.
In close proximity, not much can stay hidden for long, and as revelations and long-held tensions come to light, nothing is more shocking than the unexpected guest who's about to arrive....
