You think it will never happen to you: the ring of the bell, the policeman on the doorstep. What he says traps you in a nightmare that starts with the words, 'I'm afraid…'

Fittingly, her last story was published in the New Yorker in the week that she died, aged ninety-six.This posthumous novella of interconnected stories and vignettes is enriched by Segal''s inspiring wit and wisdom, her compassionate gaze, and her unquenchable curiosity about life. It''s a book that entreats us to keep talking, regardless of differences and the trials of ageing - a book that we''ll still be talking about many years hence.

Štafeta
Sedmnáctiletá Júko bydlí s nevlastním otcem Morimijou a vede naprosto spokojený život — nebo se to tak alespoň může na první pohled zdát. Od narození stihla vystřídat domov a příjmení hned čtyřikrát. Přestože se složení její rodiny několikrát změnilo, všichni rodiče ji zahrnovali láskou. Odnesla si od nich spoustu dobrého, ale některé šrámy se jen tak nezahojí. To jí připomene především rušný poslední ročník střední školy, v němž kromě učení na přijímací zkoušky dojde i na pár zvratů, které Júko donutí pořádně se zamyslet nad svými hodnotami, názory na přátelství a v neposlední řadě i nad tím, co jí dali a možná i vzali všichni její rodiče.
Nakonec Júko čeká i první velká láska a zakládání vlastní rodiny, které s sebou přinese ještě jednu výzvu před poslední změnou příjmení — přesvědčit Morimiju, aby jí a jejímu budoucímu manželovi dal svolení ke svatbě.

Emily and her buttoned-up rival Evelyn are, for once, in agreement: Violet's death was no accident. There's an obvious culprit, the French schoolmistress with whom Violet was getting a little too close - they just need to prove it. Desperate for answers, Emily and her classmates turn to spiritualism, hoping for a glimpse of wisdom from the great beyond. To their shock, Violet's spirit appears, choosing pious Evelyn as her unlikely medium. And Violet has a warning for them: the danger has just begun. Something deadly is infecting Briarley. It starts with rotten food and curdled milk, but quickly grows more threatening. As the body count rises and students race to save themselves, Emily must confront the fatal forces poisoning the school. Emily's fight for survival forces her to reevaluate everything she knows: about Violet, Evelyn, Briarley, and, ultimately, herself. Avery Curran channels the indelible ambience and intrigue of the classic boarding school novel while turning the beloved genre on its head in this visceral, exuberant debut.

All of this would be easy to ignore in the flush of new love. Except Saffy's never been in love before, and it's weird. She's having difficulty separating romance from homicide. Especially when someone discovers Saffy's secret hobby and starts sending Jonathan coded messages about her crimes.
Is someone trying to break them up? Or trying to hunt her down?
