As Veronica goes about her first free morning in what feels like a lifetime, John, racked by sleep deprivation, is fleeing lower Manhattan with Clara for a weekend in the Caribbean. This isn't a kidnapping. It's just that the cozy local diner happened to be closed, and John, wanting to give his wife a break and spend a little time with the baby, took a taxi to the airport and hopped on a plane.Told through alternating points of view, Thea Goodman's The Sunshine When She's Gone explores one unusual weekend's lifechanging impact on a couple, as individuals and as partners.
