FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE WEDDING PEOPLE
Sally Holt has always been mystified by the things her older sister, Kathy, seems to have been born knowing. Kathy has answers for all of Sally's questions about life, about love and about Billy Barnes, the high school basketball star who runs the refreshment stand at the local pool. Billy's unfathomable, otherworldly cool puts him on a different planet - until a tragedy leaves Sally's life forever intertwined with his.

Opening in the early nineties and charting almost two decades of shared history and missed connections, Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance is a dazzlingly unconventional love story that brims with unexpected moments of joy.

THE ACCLAIMED SECOND NOVEL FROM ALISON ESPACH, NOW PUBLISHED IN THE UK FOR THE FIRST TIME.

'Heartbreaking and funny, often in the same sentence'
Claire Lombardo
'An immensely talented writer . . . deeply moving, always excellent'
Emily St. John Mandel

'Tender, eloquent and wise, this is an intensely beautiful book by a supremely gifted writer'
Karen Thompson Walker

'Unputdownable, insightful, funny and emotionally profound'
Rufi Thorpe

'This is truly a novel like no other'
Joanna Rakoff
