Book excerpt: Olivia and Carl appear to have the perfect life: a son and a daughter, weekends on Cape Cod and satisfying jobs as professors at Belvedere College in a picturesque Massachusetts town. Until, one day, the seemingly stable and dependable Carl disappears without a trace, leaving behind only a cryptic note. Alone and terrified, Olivia cannot help but relive the long-buried pain she felt when she lost her first husband. While Carl travels back to his childhood hometown to confront the demons he has always hidden from his wife, Olivia must take a journey of her own to make peace with the memories that haunt her. Told with unflinching honesty, The Windmill is a story of the secrets we are entitled to keep and those that must be shared.
