Mapping the Tide – Paperback

When Clair Brenner, an exhausted, overworked medical resident, must evaluate a suicidal woman in the emergency department, she is shocked to recognize her long-estranged mother. Shaken, she avoids telling her unpredictable half-sister Sibley, while quietly seeking her mother’s diagnosis, hoping to make sense of their fractured past and her mother’s sudden reappearance. But when a visitor arrives at the hospital claiming connections to their mother, Sibley’s hidden agenda surfaces, and Clair’s carefully compartmentalized worlds collide. As professional lines blur and family bonds fray, the sisters are forced to confront the limits of responsibility and forgiveness while relationships-and lives-hang in the balance.
