"Sunday is visiting day. Not for everyone. Sunday is a complicated day. Every Sunday, the elderly know exactly which day of the week it is."
Justine Neje is twenty-one. She lives with her grandmother, grandfather, and brother Jules.
Justine works at the nursing home "Hortensia" and loves talking to its residents more than anything else. Her favorite is Hélène, who is over ninety, and her memories deserve a separate novel.
Hélène's stories prompt Justine to come face to face with the secrets of her past and experience the loss she hides deep inside.
An unexpected anonymous call to the nursing home changes Justine's life forever.
"Charming heroine, amazing world, talented storyteller." - ELLE
