#1 INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE MOMENT

連續五天120小時

深陷悖德愉悅與道德責任的漩渦中

當蘿拉離開她位於緬因州的住家，前往波士頓參加一場放射科研討會時，她不禁鬆了一口氣，心想可以有幾天的時間，遠離那些每天與病患一同經歷、令人心碎的現實生活，能有個周末的喘息時間，逃離她那失敗的婚姻以及那兩個正準備出外的孩子們；然而蘿拉卻赫然發覺，自己早已不經意的與一位甫在會場認識的男子同進同出。

剛開始李察看來有點陰沉又乏味，但在二度相遇後，蘿拉開始想像一個全新、不同於現況的生活；蘿拉自問，是否最根本的成熟象徵在於明瞭，介於激情與孤獨、幸福與絕望，我們永遠得以在兩者間自行抉擇。

道格拉斯．甘迺迪的磅礡新作《繾綣五日情》，深刻地審視了希望的滅絕，愛的無限可能，以及如何一場短暫的偶遇，促使一成不變的生活常軌產生截然不同的變化。

When Laura leaves her small Maine town to attend a radiography conference in Boston, she is relieved to have a few days away from the heartbreaking realities she shares with cancer patients every day. A weekend's respite from her failing marriage and her two children who are leaving the nest finds her unexpectedly in the company of a man she has only just met. At first, Richard seems gray and uninspired, but after a second chance encounter, Laura begins to imagine a life beyond the one she has rooted herself to—and to ask herself if the ultimate sign of maturity is realizing that one always has a choice between passion and loneliness, happiness or despair. Douglas Kennedy's powerful new novel poignantly examines the death of hope, the limitless possibilities of love, and how the entire trajectory of a life can change through one brief encounter.
