Road ends

Lawson, Mary 1946- (Author).

Summary: A new family is at the centre of Mary's 3rd novel (following THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BRIDGE) - the Cartwrights - with its 5 children (from newborn infant to the rambunctious twins and their dependable older sister Meg, and Tom) and their father - a man absent in spirit if not in fact, - and mother, who dotes on giving birth to babies but is herself oddly and worryingly fading away. The gripping story is triggered by the suicide of young Tom Cartwright's best friend, Rob, after Rob has accidentally killed a child while drunk driving. Tom is devastated, and the tragedy will bring to the surface independent desires and needs. Canadian author - Ontario
