By Janine Avril
In this memoir, family secrets and their consequences emerge from the safety of the night and shed light on a life of mysteries. Janine Avril was twelve years old when her mother was diagnosed with a deadly cancer, from which she died three years later. While a junior at Cornell University, Janine learned that her father, a popular French chef and entrepreneur, was terminally ill. But it was the unexpected phone call five years later that truly forced Janine to re-evaluate her childhood.
Embarking on a journey into the dark corners of her past, Janine's investigation revealed a deeply personal and powerful link to her father, further illuminating the truth behind her mother's illness.
