Publisher's Synopsis

Maura Ostryder is coming to her own, both personally and professionally, as she turns 51. She's always been master of her own life, and has raised son, Kai, to be the same. Unfortunately life isn't as easily managed, and 27 year old Kai is both dreamy and remote; a sufferer of bi-polar disorder and a drug-addict. He comes home broke, addicted to Oxycontin and determined to get clean and get his life back on track, in this novel which explores motherhood, addiction and sexual identity in a modern-day family setting.
