Description:

"It is the summer of 1974, and eleven-year-old Emily Stone is silently narrating the story of the death of her twin brother, Ham, and the tumultuous unrest it has caused her family. Beneath her father's forced orderliness and her mother's seeming peacefulness lie chaos and delusion, compounded by Emily's self-imposed silence. When Mr. Stone plans a family vacation to Martha's Vineyard, where Ham drowned, the family order begins to spin out of control.". "As Emily pieces the fragments of her past back together, she begins to understand the truth of her brother's death. Stay is a novel of love and redemption in which Emily Stone rediscovers her voice and moves back into the world."--BOOK JACKET.
