Three adult sisters inherit a beach house on the condition they spend one week together every May, leading to the discovery of family secrets, unexpected romance, and a new understanding of each other.
No matter what’s going on in the May sisters’ lives, the one thing they can rely upon is seeing each other for one week in May at their grandmother’s beachside home in gorgeous Coronado. As adults, Julia, Emily, and Nora aren’t particularly close, their homes spread out across the country and the sisters busy with careers, relationships, and the minutia of life, but their promise to return each year keeps them anchored together.
Until one May when Julia, the oldest and most dependable sister, doesn’t show. Suddenly Nora and Emily start to question how much they truly know about their sister’s life. Told in alternating points of view, spanning from their time together with Grandma Vera as kids into their adult lives, The May House explores how a decades-long family secret has unknowingly shaped each sister and, ultimately, how it brings them closer together.
Funny, poignant, and brimming with heart, The May House is an irresistible story about the special bond between sisters who are figuring out what matters most in life, in all its ups and downs.

Kritikerstimmen
"Campbell’s performance makes this a compelling listen." — Kirkus
"Ever since childhood, sisters Julia, Emily, and Nora have spent one week each May at their grandmother Vera’s beachside home in Coronado, California. As adults living complicated lives in different cities, they keep returning—until one May when Julia, the family’s organizer and emotional anchor, doesn’t arrive or answer her phone. Emily and Nora begin to question what Julia has hidden from them. Told through summer moments and alternating points of view, the audiobook spans more than 40 years of sisterhood. Narrator Cassandra Campbell distinguishes the sisters with clear, mostly consistent voices; gives Vera a hoarser tone; sharpens the voices of annoyed teens with clipped speech; and captures decades of emotion through exhausted sighs, wounded edges, and a neighbor’s warm, patient cadence." — Kirkus
