    Summary: 
    "Absorbed in her own failings, Clara Purdy crashes her life into a sharp left turn, taking the family in the other car along with her. When bruises on the mother, Lorraine, prove to be late-stage cancer. Clara tries to do the right thing, moving the family into her own house and upending her life in the process. As Lorraine walks the borders of death, Clara expands her life, finding purpose, energy, and unexpected love amidst the hard, unaccustomed work of sharing her days. But the burden in not only Clara's: the children must cope with the guilt of divided loyalties, and Lorraine must live with her growing, unpayable debt to Clara--and the feeling that Clara has taken her place. What, exactly, does it mean to be good? When is sacrifice merely selfishness? What do we owe in this life, and what do we deserve?"--Inside front cover.
