Rabbit Moon is a captivating family drama set in the vibrant city of Shanghai, where a fractured American family confronts its complicated past.
Four years after their bitter divorce, Claire and Aaron Litvak receive a phone call no parent is prepared for: their 22-year-old daughter, Lindsey, teaching English in China during a college gap year, has been critically injured in a hit-and-run accident. At a Shanghai hospital, they wait anxiously at her bedside, hoping for the best and preparing for the worst.
The accident unveils a deeper fissure within the family, revealing the shocking event that ended the Litvaks' marriage and turned Lindsey against them. Estranged from her parents, Lindsey has confided only in her younger sister, Grace, who was adopted as an infant from China. As Claire and Aaron navigate the bustling, cosmopolitan streets of Shanghai, the newly prosperous "miracle city," they face troubling questions about Lindsey's life there, where nothing is quite as it seems.
With her trademark psychological acuity, Jennifer Haigh delivers a taut, suspenseful story about family, secret lives, and the unbreakable bond between two sisters—the fabled red thread that ties them together across time and space.
A legend in the making. Await the tale’s unfolding! 🐉.
