Repercussions

A workday, like any other, juggling projects, managing people, family. And then the telephone rings. A stranger delivers news that changes lives.

Vaughan Earle Justice's Repercussions begins with that telephone call. She will come to question everything she knew-or thought she knew-about her childhood, her parents and older sister. Old griefs are fresh again and are made more complex. Old joys are fresh again, too, and her family expands and is strengthened because of her efforts to sort memory and truth.

Many readers will hear echoes of their own family's experience in Repercussions, and yet each family's story is different. The universality and the individuality draw readers to join Vaughan's journey.
