She ascends to the Beyond where she's assigned to a Person named Martha, who allows Vivi to watch what happens below for one last summer. Vivi is granted three "nudges" to change the outcome of events on Earth, and--with her daughter Willa on her third miscarriage, daughter Carson partying until all hours, and son Leo currently "off again" with his high-maintenance girlfriend--she'll have to think carefully where to use them. From the Beyond, Vivi watches "The Chief" Ed Kapenash investigate her death, but her greatest worry is her final book, which contains a secret from her youth that could destroy her reputation. But when hidden truths come to light, Vivi's family will have to sort out their past and present mistakes--with or without a nudge of help from above--while Vivi finally lets them grow without her."--Back cover. 541 $d 20220714. 650 7 $a Women authors $x Death $v Fiction. 650 $a Future life $v Fiction. 650 $a Hit-and-run drivers $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Mother and child $v Fiction. 650 $a Secrecy $v Fiction. 651 $a Nantucket (Mass.) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l SWPB124 $d 20220923010850.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0F04898E3B0511EDADB189BD42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
