Gillam upstate New York: a town of ordinary big-lawned suburban houses. The Gleesons have recently moved there and soon welcome the Stanhopes as their new neighbours. Lonely Lena Gleeson wants a friend but Anne Stanhope - cold elegant unstable - wants to be left alone. Its left to their children - Lenas youngest Kate and Annes only child Peter - to find their way to one another. To form a friendship whose resilience and love will be almost broken by the fault line dividing both families and by the terrible tragedy that will engulf them all. A tragedy whose true origins only become clear many years later . . . A story of love and redemption faith and forgiveness Ask Again Yes reveals the way childhood memories change when viewed from the distance of adulthood - villains lose their menace and those who appeared innocent seem less so.
