This collection explores the theme of relationships, many of which are troubled, including those between siblings, parents, spouses, and friends. These relationships create a fertile ground for conflicts. While there are some uplifting moments and humor throughout the stories, the dominant thread revolves around angst, betrayal, heartbreak, and unhappiness. The settings and time periods vary widely, ranging from Vancouver Island hundreds of years ago to Berlin in the 1930s, France in the 1980s, and contemporary locations such as the Caribbean, New York, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas. The narratives depict the crises and challenges faced by women who must navigate these difficult situations. For instance, a young teen in Canada confronts adult problems much too early, a woman confronts her father about past grievances, and there is a whimsical tale about allowing one's libido to compromise personal safety. These eleven surprising, daring, and resonant stories invite readers to engage with the life crises of others while also reflecting on their own experiences.
