Who had her mother married all those years before? This title presents the story of the insufferable mother-daughter bond.

      ''With this one word, Lili had finally understood many things: that no matter what she promised or sacrificed or gave, she would always be ''broken'' to her daughter.''

      When Jasmin Darznik finds a photo among her father''s possessions shortly after his death, she recognises the child in the veil and bride''s clothes as her mother, Lili, but the groom is unfamiliar.
