A warm and uplifting novel about a woman with trauma-induced agoraphobia who rejoins the world one step at a time.

"An optimistic, feel-good novel." —Kirkus Reviews

Suddenly her carefully curated home is no longer a space to hide. Whether Meredith likes it or not, the world is coming to her door ...
