Conrad & Eleanor by Jane Rogers

After decades together, a long-married pair of scientists come undone when the husband suddenly disappears, forcing his high-profile wife and their adult children to confront the secrets, betrayals, and compromises that have sustained their family. Moving between past and present, the story probes ambition, scientific ethics, and the unequal bargains of partnership, asking what remains of love when careers, parenthood, and long-buried truths collide.
