Man Booker Prize–winning novelist Penelope Lively’s latest masterpiece opens with a snapshot: Kath, before her death, at an unknown gathering, holding hands with a man who is not her husband. The photograph is in an envelope marked “DON’T OPEN—DESTROY.” But Kath’s husband does not heed the warning, embarking on a journey of discovery that reveals a tight web of secrets—within marriages, between sisters, and at the heart of an affair. Kath, with her mesmerizing looks and casual ways, moves like a ghost through the memories of everyone who knew her—and a portrait emerges of a woman whose life cannot be understood without plumbing the emotional depths of the people she touched. Propelled by the author’s signature mastery of narrative and psychology, The Photograph is Lively at her very best, the dazzling climax to all she has written before.

Fourteen-year-old Phoebe Hecht is slowly making her way through the long boring days of summer vacation. It doesn't help that her mom's marriage to a wealthy heart surgeon means that they've left their old, comfortable lives behind—so much so that her mom now seems ashamed at the merest mention of their humble beginnings. Now they live in a fancy neighborhood where she doesn't belong, and the only friend she made at her new school, Yuri Kimura, has gone back home to Tokyo for the summer. The only thing getting Pheobe through the summer is her obsession with Agatha Christie mysteries and her covert spying on Colin, her crush who works at the local grocery store. A chance meeting with a kind elderly neighbor named Mrs. Tomblin changes everything and brings all Phoebe's interests together, as she and Colin try and solve the mystery of a break-in at Mrs. Tomblin's house. Could Mrs. Tomblin's collection of old photographs be at the centre of the puzzle?
