A family saga which reflects on the life and times of a matriarch who seems to be able to control the family long after her death. Will they ever be free of her? Set mostly in 2010, it touches on modern day mental health issues while scrolling through, posthumously, the remarkable life of love and endeavour of its guiding character. Despite the failings of her extended family members, blood lines prove thicker than water, and she is as much trapped by them as they are by her. The novel ends in March 2020 on a topical note.
