Howard Jacobson
Two people fall in love. Kevern doesn't know why his father always drew two fingers across his lips when he said a world starting with a J. Ailinn too has grown up in the dark about where she came from. On their first date Kevern kisses the bruises under her eyes. He doesn't ask who hurt her.
Hanging over the lives of everyone is a past event shrouded in suspicion, now referred to as What Happened, If It Happened.
