A tidy ending / by Cannon, Joanna(Psychiatrist),author.;
"A NICE, NORMAL HOUSE ... Linda has lived in a quiet neighborhood ever since fleeing the dark events of her childhood in Wales. Now she sits in her kitchen, wondering if this is all there is--pushing the vacuum around and cooking fish sticks for supper is a far cry from the glamorous lifestyle she sees in the glossy catalogues coming through the mail slot addressed to the previous occupant, Rebecca. A NICE, NORMAL HUSBAND? Terry isn't perfect--he picks his teeth, tracks dirt through the house, and spends most of his time in front of the TV. But that seems fairly standard--until he starts keeping odd hours at work, at around the same time young women in the town start to go missing ... A NICE, NORMAL LIFE ... If Linda could track down and befriend Rebecca, maybe some of that enviable lifestyle would rub off on her. But the grass isn't always greener: you can't change who you really are, and criminals can hide behind closed doors"--

"Mary explores long-buried memories of her interracial love story as her short-term memories fade. Struggling to cope with Alzheimer's disease, Mary moves into her daughter's home, along with her cat. Mary's daughter is full of good intentions but soon finds herself caught between her cognitively impaired mother and her belligerent teenage son. Sage, the family's golden retriever, offers them all comfort and unconditional love, but she has her own problems now having to deal with the cat. As dementia progresses, Mary's recent memories vanish, replaced with those from her past, especially of her young husband who died forty years earlier. Wanting to keep Keith's memory alive for her children, Mary attempts to write her memoir. Spanning Trinidad, England, and Canada, her tangled tales reveal the trauma of an interracial love story set in an era of intolerance and hatred, and of a love that refuses to die. But with her reading, writing and comprehension skills slipping away, it's a race against time."--Provided by publisher.
