By Ann LearyThis is a well-written story about a woman's denial that she is an alcoholic. Hildy is a successful realtor in a New England coastal town (not unlike Barrington). The story is populated with realistic characters and many realistic scenarios. It culminates in a tragic climax in which Hildy finally realizes her need - a need both for help and for human companionship.
How many alcoholics are out there who simply think they can manage their illness through "moderation"? This novel was a reminder to reach out to those who struggle with alcohol addiction - and any other addictions.
