Betty Lynne Davidson is planning her husband’s funeral while overlooking
one thing: he’s not dead.
When Suzanne Mullins, forty-two, gets the call from her father to come back
home to Texas because her mother has gone off the deep end, she knows it
will mean having to look at the faulty foundations of their marriage as well as
her own. Betty Lynne has always upheld a perfect facade of home and family,
and Suzanne has followed suit. But her life with husband Mike and son
Oliver is cracking under the pressure of its own unspoken history.
Looking her past in the eye once and for all, Suzanne hopes that trusting in
God’s love and mercy will set all of this craziness straight—even if it does
mean having to watch her father give the eulogy at his own funeral.
