'Devastating and heartwarming, and exquisite in every way, this is a book you'll fall deeply in love with and never want to put down' Kevin Kwan, author of Crazy Rich Asians
In the glittering city of Hong Kong, expats arrive daily for myriad reasons. Far from home, a tragic incident causes three American women's lives to collide in ways that will rewrite every assumption of their privileged world: Mercy, a young Korean American and recent Columbia graduate, finds herself compromised and adrift, trying to start her life anew; Hilary, a wealthy housewife, is haunted by her struggle to have a child, hoping to save her uncertain marriage; meanwhile, Margaret, once the enviable mother of three, tries to negotiate an existence that has become utterly unrecognizable after a catastrophic event.
As each woman struggles with her own demons, their lives collide in ways that have irreversible consequences for them all. The Expatriates is an atmospheric, moving and utterly compelling story of motherhood and family.
'I raced through this enthralling story' Liane Moriarty, author of Big Little Lies
'Gorgeously wrought... a must-read' Marie Claire
