Review by Rose

When Ed Connor slips into a coma his wife, children and their families arrive at the hospital to await his recovery. They gather around his bedside and begin reminiscing about the good old days but as the hours pass stress begins to take its toll causing long held family secrets and unresolved issues to surface. A disagreement over a DNR order put Ed’s sons, Steve and Peter, at odds and the family speculates that their anger is really about an event that led to their falling out when they were teens. While in his coma, Ed exists somewhere between life and death and wonders what he could have done differently when Steve tried to tell him that he was gay. The family is drawn into the bitter battle between Peter and Steve, and they fear things will never be right between them again. It’s now up to the family to devise an intervention as a last ditch effort to bring these two battling brothers back into the family.

This book deals with a topic that would be close to many people’s hearts—and I believe that even if you aren’t facing the particular specific item, there are other stresses in a family’s life that a reader could identify with while reading the book.

There are many times in a family when stress makes a person do or say things they might normally not—and this is the case with the Connor family. Truths come to light and, as often the case when a deep infection is lanced, the pain of those truths is what is necessary for healing to begin.

Mr. Blodgett does a wonderful job at portraying the family members with all their faults as well as their good qualities. I have to admit, my favorite character is Benjamin—he is wise beyond his years. They are all, though, fully drawn and by the end of the book I felt like I had met some new friends.

The book is very much character driven…it is, after all, a family drama and there are enough internal conflicts the characters have to face. The location could be Anywhere, USA (heck, the world as far as I know… family conflicts know no borders).

Kudo, Mr. Blodgett. This might have been the first book by you that I’ve read, but I will definitely be on the lookout for others!
