Maxine’s life went into a tailspin on the day her father died twenty years ago. She believes he is the only one who ever really loved her and knew her and that her life would have been different if he had not died. She would not have suffered from a mother who deserted her, a new stepfather, and the pain and sorrow of her rebellious teenage years. Or the suffering of losing JD, who gave her a sense of belonging at least for a time.
