The disappearance of Nen, the main character who never actually appears in the book, inspires those close to her to remember her. Through a range of other voices we come to know Nen, and to know of her fears, her desires and her longing; but as her family and friends betray the secrets of this enigma of a woman, they are also forced to reveal their own, closest-kept feelings, and in the process they betray themselves too.
