#1 New York Times bestselling author Fredrik Backman delivers an unforgettable tale of four teenagers whose friendship profoundly impacts a stranger's life twenty-five years later. In a famous painting, three tiny figures sit at the end of a pier, unnoticed by most. However, Louisa, an artist, is determined to uncover their story. Twenty-five years prior, a group of teens escapes their troubled home lives by spending their days on that same pier. Joar, a fighter; Ted, a quiet boy mourning his father; Ali, the daughter of a transient father; and an artist boy grappling with his own demons form a bond that gives them hope and purpose. Together, they create a transcendent work of art that will eventually come into Louisa's possession. As Louisa navigates the complexities of this bequest, she embarks on a cross-country journey to discover the painting's origins. The closer she gets to its birthplace, the more she feels inspired to express her own artistic voice. This journey reveals that happy endings may not always align with expectations, highlighting the transformative power of friendship and art in unexpected ways.
