Fiction
Grace Hawkes has not spoken to her previously tight-knit
family since her mother's sudden death five years ago. Well,
most of the family was tight-knit--her father walked out on
them when she was 13 and she and her two brothers and sister
bonded together even closer with their mother as a result. She's been doing her best to live her new life apart from
them, but when their estranged father has a stroke and
summons them, Grace suddenly realizes she's done the same
thing he had done...abandoned those who need her most. And need her they do, for inside the hospital walls, a
strange war is unfolding between the pseudo-kindly woman who
is their father's second wife and the rest of the original
Hawkes clan. Upon reconnecting with her brother and sisters,
Grace will find a part of herself she thought was lost
forever. As they unravel the manipulative deception of the
second Mrs. Hawkes, Grace will finally be able to stand up
for her family-- and to remember what a family is, even
after all these years.
