This novel deals with some of the tough issues today - aging parents as children and spouses demand more time. Hugh Morris's shocking statement from his hospital bed unwittingly hints at the secret he and his wife, Vonnie, have kept concealed for nearly half a century. Now that the carefully woven fabrication is unravelling, their grown children struggle with the traume of rewriting their family history and facing the uncertain future that has been thrust upon them.
