Folding Boats (Paperback)

Folding Boats is a 24-chapter recovery novel told in a voice you will not forget — a parent fighting for their child and their sobriety at the same time, one day at a time. It opens in a quiet apartment before the knock comes, moves through a custody hearing built on fear, and lands at Harbor House, a faded former motel on a hill that is not a harbor and has no water — the first lie of the place, in a story about learning how many lies you have been telling yourself. Intake takes four hours. The truth takes longer. Gutting and honest about shame and surrender, this is the story of a bottom you can bounce off — and the climb that follows.
