Showing results for "A Hanging" in Family Life

On the Hawaiian island of Molokai, life goes on for the three young Ogata children after the death of their mother and subsequent emotional withdrawal of their grief and guilt-stricken "Poppy". The eldest at 13, Ivah is now responsible for the safety and well-being of tiny Maisie, vulnerable and mute since their mother's passing; and for Blu, her uncontainable brother whose desperate need for love has made him vulnerable to the most insidious of relationships.

Maggie, Cheryl, and Rhoda Lennon—dubbed the Lemon Sisters by their late mother—are together again. But unlike the trauma that marked their last adventure, this time they seek fun and relaxation on a deluxe river cruise. Maggie, the dateless school teacher, wishes for romance and companionship, a welcome change from her daily routine. Cheryl, the smart, beautiful, talented sister, looks for fame and fortune. And Rhoda, the always-on-the-edge-of-recovery addict, just wants to spend time with her treasured younger sisters and get her life together.
