Dr. Mary Crawford is a fifty-year-old psychotherapist operating a successful practice in Los Angeles. Noted for her addiction assistance and suicide prevention techniques, she leads group therapy sessions with addicts in the throes of recovery.
During one particular session, she is called upon for a case involving an extremely depressed fifteen-year-old girl who was the victim of a violent rape and has survived a suicide attempt. The daughter of a noted brain surgeon, the troubled teen becomes the doctor's private patient.
But on a day when the young girl spirals into a suicidal depression, she is unable to reach the doctor and successfully ends her own life. When the girl's father discovers the circumstances of his daughter's suicide-as well as the real truth behind the doctor's mysterious absence-he vows to destroy the doctor at all costs. Now Dr. Crawford's life hangs in the balance, and her only hope for survival is the broken people around her.
A dramatic novel about the devastating consequences of drug addiction, Broken Flowers is a powerful story about brokenness, healing, and hope.
