The Catch

"This novel bends genres and time. It opens on the 30th birthday of twin sisters Clara and Dempsey. As children, after the death of their mother, they were raised in different families and have little in common – until that birthday, when they are pulled together after Clara swears she sees their dead mother, very much alive and also … 30 years old. The first half of The Catch is riveting. It’s a nearly impossible story to “land,” but an ending is perhaps beside the point – the story could go on and on."
