Private Rites by Julia Armfield

In a world where relentless rain has transformed the landscape, three estranged sisters—Isla, Irene, and Agnes—are brought back together by the death of their father, a renowned yet harsh architect. As they gather in their childhood home, a grand glass house, they uncover hidden secrets and memories that challenge their fragile relationship. Amidst personal struggles—Isla's unresolved feelings for her ex-wife, Irene's strained relationship, and Agnes's unexpected romance—the sisters face a mysterious revelation in their father's will. This discovery hints at a deeper, more ominous connection to their mother's disappearance and the peculiar interest strangers have always shown in their lives. As the sisters grapple with these revelations, they realize they are part of a larger, unsettling purpose that could have profound consequences for their family and the world around them.
