Friends since earliest childhood, Annie, Jake, and Mason have a special bond. When Annie's parents die on the same night that she and Mason get married, the three friends decide to raise Annie's infant sister, Opal, together. Not surprisingly, their bonds of intimacy, already deeply entangled, become strained. As Annie struggles, events take on a momentum of their own. And then, one fateful night, the three friends goad each other into stepping over a line, with shocking consequences for each of them.

Reviews

“Hegi is an accomplished storyteller; she inhabits different characters and blends the past with the present to tell a rich story of love, death, loyalty, and survival.”

“This ambitious novel fearlessly explores both the highs and lows of pushing emotional boundaries.”

The Worst Thing I've Done is the work of a mature and masterful writer at her peak. The layering—the collage—of character and point of view, tragedy and healing, creativity and loss, loyalty and fidelity, love and jealousy, all combine with lyrical prose in a story that resonates long after its end.”
