Summary
"Karen Bloom is not a coddling mother. She believes that tough discipline is essential to parenting. She expects her husband and her children to perform at 200 percent -- no matter the cost. But eventually, her unending quest for excellence causes her seemingly flawless family to rebel against her: her husband Noel develops a proclivity for alcohol and women; their prodigy daughter, Bronte, longs to run away; Verity, Noel's teenage daughter from his first marriage, starts to display aggressive behavior; Karen's son from a previous relationship falls deeper into drug use. When tragedy strikes the Blooms, Karen's carefully constructed facade begins to fall apart -- and once the deadly cracks appear, they are impossible to stop."--, Provided by publisher
