Publisher's Synopsis
Mira and Owen's marriage is less stable than they know when Wilton Deere, an aging, no longer famous TV star moves in to the house next door. With plenty of money and time to kill, Wilton is charming and ruthless as he inserts himself into the couple's life in a quest for distraction, friendship and most urgently, a connection with the daughter he abandoned years earlier. The Tell is a finely-wrought novel about risk: of dependence, of responsibility, of addiction, of trust, of violence.
