When Cathy and Noah first got together neither saw children in their future. Eight years later, they''re happily married - and Cathy isn''t so sure. With Noah''s patience for his wife''s ambivalence waning, her widowed mother in a world of her own and her best friend yearning for a second baby, Cathy feels increasingly adrift.

Escaping into her work in the conservation studios of the National Gallery, she chips away at the layers of overpaint on a canvas from the collection. Will the discovery of an unexpected truth help her find the clarity she craves?
