A novel of love, loss and independence . . .
Vivian Delaney and Carl Thomas moved to New York City from Australia to follow their dreams of fame, fortune and success. Seven years later Vivian has just won the award for the most popular actress in daytime soap. Carl is becoming a successful off-Broadway playwright and director.
While it all seems great to the folks back home in Melbourne, Australia, sometimes Vivian hears the nagging voices of dissatisfaction and fear. But when they can't be hushed, all she has to do is ring up her beloved mother, Shirley, who will always give her constant assurance.
Shirley's sudden death rocks Vivian's world to the core. Suddenly there is no one to quieten her ever-increasing fear and doubt of herself. Or is there?
'In Her Mother's House' is the story of a motherless daughter's journey to independence and the reconnection of family ties lost with time and distance.
