Nonny Frett understands the meanings of "rock" and "hard place" better than any woman ever born. She"s got two mothers, "one Deaf-blind and the other four baby steps from flat crazy." She"s got two men: her husband, who"s easing out the back door; and her best friend, who"s laying siege to her heart in her front yard. She has a job that holds her in the city, and she"s addicted to a little girl who"s stuck deep in the country. And she has two families; the Fretts, who stole her and raised her right, and the Crabtrees, who lost her and can"t forget that they"ve been done wrong.
