Set against the wild shores of Cape Cod, Lineage follows three generations of women whose lives are shaped by a single seaside home and the secrets it carries. A young navigator fighting for her place in a man's world, a rising chef determined to build something of her own, and a modern surgeon drawn back to the Cape to face what she's tried to outrun-each woman must confront identity, love, and belonging in her own turbulent era. Their lives, intertwined across a century, reveal how family can anchor us, challenge us, and ultimately guide us toward who we're meant to become. Sweeping and deeply compelling, Lineage is a novel about reinvention, resilience, and the bonds that refuse to break. It is a testament to the women who weather the storms-and build something enduring in their wake.

Industry Reviews

"A moving exploration of what we inherit, what we choose, and what we must finally release."

"A compelling reminder that the places we come from shape us long after we've left their shores."

"A gorgeous, sweeping debut. Fans of Kristin Hannah, Ann Patchett, and Celeste Ng will find much to love here."

"A breathtaking novel about resilience, reinvention, and the fierce bonds that tie women together across time."
