"Desperate to become a mother, Johanna Oppenheimer is an early adopter of IVF — but she never imagined that her triplets would grow up to despise one another. With her husband still distant after a tragedy in his youth, Johanna decides to have a fourth child from an embryo frozen nearly 20 years prior. Are shared genes and one woman’s sheer will enough to constitute a family, let alone sustain it? The Oppenheimers may scatter at the first opportunity, but what binds them together is at the heart of this sharp, decades-spanning saga."
