520 |a Mary Rose MacKinnon, nicknamed MR or "Mister," is a successful YA author who has made enough from her writing to semi-retire in her early 40s. She lives in a comfortable Toronto neighborhood with her partner, Hilary, a busy theatre director, and their two young children, Matthew and Maggie, trying valiantly and often hilariously to balance her creative pursuits with domestic demands, and the various challenges that mostly solo parenting presents. As a child, Mary Rose suffered from an illness, long since cured and "filed separately" in her mind. But as her frustrations mount, she experiences a flare-up of forgotten symptoms which compel her to rethink her memories of her own childhood and her relationship with her parents. With her world threatening to unravel, the specter of domestic violence raises its head with dangerous implications for her life and that of her own children.
