About this audiobook

Three people submit obituaries for the same woman. Each account is true. None tells the whole story. When June Bell dies, the struggling Harbor Beacon receives three obituaries for her: one from the daughter she left, one from her former wife, who remembers a week June cared for her after they separated, and one from the neighbor who counted her as family. Each remembers a different June. None is wrong, and none is enough. With the memorial 72 hours away, obituary editor Lila Mercer must choose between a neat consensus and a story that leaves the contradictions intact. As she listens to the people who knew June—and to her own daughter, who is making a life Lila cannot plan for her—Lila begins to understand that a fair account is not always a final one. Three Obituaries for June Bell is a quietly propulsive novel about grief, family, and the limits of what one person can say about another.
