One Two Three shares the story told by the Mitchell triplets—Mab, Monday, and Mirabel—about their fight for justice after an unscrupulous company knowingly poisons their small town. These three unforgettable narrators tell a spellbinding story with wit, wonder, and deep affection, demonstrating how if we expand our notions of normal, then we can make the world a better place for everyone, and how when days are darkest, it’s our daughters who will save us all.
Laurie Frankel is The New York Times bestselling, award-winning author of six novels, including her latest, Enormous Wings, as well as Family Family, One Two Three, and the Reese’s Book Club pick, This Is How It Always Is. Her writing has also appeared in The New York Times, The Guardian, The Washington Post, Publisher’s Weekly, and other publications. She is the recipient of the Washington State Book Award and the Endeavor Award. Her novels have been translated into more than 25 languages and have been optioned for film and TV.
