When a devastating fire sweeps through St. John&apos;s, Newfoundland, in the summer of 1892, nineteen-year-old Lily Hunt hopes it&apos;s the beginning of a new life that will transform her from a dutiful daughter to a crusader, a suffragist, and a woman in love. Twenty years later, Lily&apos;s daughter Grace is deeply immersed in campaigning for women to have the vote. When Grace learns of her mother&apos;s involvement in the suffrage cause, the Lily she discovers bears little resemblance to the mother who raised her. Grace sets out on a quest to discover what changed Lily, and why she wants to hide her past. A Sudden Sun plunges into the world of two Newfoundland women at the turn of a new century, exploring the timeless and tangled bonds between mother and daughter.
