Helen Ames-recently widowed, coping with grief, unable to do the work that has always sustained her-is beginning to depend too much on her twenty-seven-year-old daughter, Tessa, meddling in her life and offering unsolicited advice. Then Helen is shocked to discover that her mild-mannered and seemingly loyal husband was apparently leading a double life. When a phone call from a stranger sets Helen on a surprising path of discovery, both mother and daughter reassess what they thought they knew about each other, themselves, and what really makes a home and a family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eElizabeth Berg is the author of many bestselling novels as well as two works of nonfiction. \u003cb\u003eOpen House \u003c\/b\u003ewas an Oprah's Book Club selection, \u003cb\u003eDurable Goods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoy School\u003c\/b\u003e were selected as ALA Best Books of the Year, and\u003cb\u003e Talk Before Sleep\u003c\/b\u003e was short-listed for an Abby Award.
