Product Description:
To an untrained eye, Claire Richards is an all-American pre-teen, immersed in the everyday life that all 11 year old girls are: girlfriends, music, birthday parties, giggles and secrets among each other. Her father Cliff is her entire world and he would gladly spend every waking moment with his little Tweetie if his work did not take him away. Even with travel, he is nowhere near the work slave her mother Marlena has become. Not only does work consume her life, the bottle does much worse than that ? it nearly obliterates her. Marlena escapes her motherly obligations by drowning herself in gin, paperwork and unfaithful habits.Claire doesn?t remember the first time she met Marlena?s new husband, David. But she had ? in the night, alone ? and she found herself calling out to her daddy to protect her but her wails fell on deaf ears ? he was away and her mother was passed out. Their introduction was appalling and Claire spent months in a psychiatric hospital with no answers.
