The Half Moon
The Half Moon
The page-turning and immersive new novel from New York Times bestselling author of Radio 2 Summer Bookclub pick Ask Again, Yes.
Malcolm Gephardt, gregarious bartender at the Half Moon in Upstate New York, has always dreamed of owning a bar. When his boss retires, Malcolm seizes his chance. His wife, Jess, has devoted herself to her law career, but after years of unsuccessfully trying for a baby, she finds herself slipping away from her work and her marriage.
When a blizzard hits their town, on the same day that Malcolm learns some shocking news about Jess, and a key patron of the bar disappears, everyone is frozen in place for a single, pivotal week. This forces Malcolm and Jess to confront their uncertain future.
