"Bill Clegg gracefully weaves together character-driven vignettes to reveal 60 years of secrets and regrets over the course of a single day. The central characters have known each other since childhood, but while their paths parted ways long ago, the mystery around why is now threatening to come clean. Moving seamlessly from Connecticut to Kauai, from present day to the past, the unbreakable nature of their connections becomes clear. The power in Clegg's writing is his ability to bring uncomfortable situations and characters to life without judgement, allowing them their humanity while not absolving them of guilt. This gentle writing style is what makes
The End of the Day an emotionally powerful novel."
