Summary

Emma Maria Rossini appears to be the luckiest girl in the world. She's the daughter of a beautiful and loving mother, and her father is one of the most famous film actors of his generation. She's also the granddaughter of a rather eccentric and obscure Italian astrophysicist whose theories on the universe have been much ridiculed. But her seemingly charmed life begins to unravel when her mother is killed during a lightning storm. Emma stumbles through university and finds work as a journalist in Edinburgh, but she cannot escape the nightmares of her past. Finding herself in a mental institution, Emma begins to write, hoping that it might help make sense of everything that's happened to her. Emma finds ultimate solace in her once-derided grandfather's Theorem on the universe - which offers the metaphor that we are all connected, even to those we have loved and not quite lost.
