In the tradition of Alice Munro and Carol Shields, At First I Hope for Rescue features five beautifully told, linked stories about family, heartbreak, and survival
Rooted in the fictional small town of Ruth, British Columbia, but spanning the globe from France to California, these five stories perfectly capture the drama that lurks beneath the surface of everyday life. From a woman who has just discovered a disturbing secret about her best friend's husband, to a troubled teenager struggling to overcome the death of her mother, to a single mother helping a young man realize what's important to him, these are stories about real people, and behavior that is sometimes shocking, sometimes shockingly familiar.
