Regina Porterová je oceňovaná autorka s bohatými skúsenosťami v oblasti dramatickej tvorby. Jej písanie sa vyznačuje prenikavým pohľadom na ľudské vzťahy a spoločenské otázky, často sa ponára do zložitosti postáv a ich motivácií. Porterová využíva svoje divadelné pozadie na vytváranie živých dialógov a dramatických situácií, ktoré čitateľov vtiahnu do príbehu. Jej diela skúmajú hlbšie pravdy o živote a ľudskej povahe prostredníctvom majstrovsky skonštruovaných naratívov.


James Vincent, born in 1942 to an Irish-American family, escapes his parents' turbulent marriage and attends law school in New York, where he moves up the social ladder as a prosperous and bright attorney.
Brooklyn, 2020. Theo Harper and his pregnant wife Darla head upstate to their summer cottage to wait out the lockdown. Not everyone in their fancy apartment building has this: not Xavier, the restless teenager in the Cardi B t-shirt, or Darla’s black best friend Ruby and her partner Katsumi, who stay behind to save their restaurant. During an upstate hike, Theo lets slip a long-held secret about his mixed-up ancestry—and when Darla disappears after the ensuing argument, he suddenly finds himself the prime suspect at the centre of a front-page police search for the perfect missing woman.
