    Cattail Lane

    A Novel

    Fran Kimmel

    Compassionate and thoroughly engaging, this novel follows three fully drawn characters: Nick, who is suddenly the father of a 14-year-old whose grandmother can no longer look after him; Billy, that newly discovered son, who spends all his time caring for his grandmother now in the dementia ward of Prairie View Manor; and Sarah, a housekeeper on the dementia ward and the mother of an offbeat five-year-old, and the one who just might help Nick and Billy learn to offer second chances and open themselves up to futures they’d never before imagined.
