A happily married woman, Bree Durning, abruptly flees home and family after receiving a dire cancer diagnosis. When her husband, a trained psychologist, tracks her down, she can hardly explain why she has turned from all she loves to all she knows only promises pain. A story of our shadow selves and how they may offer us the courage we need to face tough times. Published October 2020 by Muriel Press, Marian University.
