The Moon Is Following You

By Marlene Cunningham

Laura Taylor flees the country, abandoning her infant son in a quest for a hazy Utopia. Brother Shawn and her Mom care for him until her abrupt return, when a hard-fought battle for custody ensues. The tale is told in the manic daughter's voice and in that of her "good-mouse" mother. It is often humorous and saga-like in that each adult seeks and finds love, apart from the child's.Laura joins an anti-abortion group and steamy scenes, danger and arson become her norm. Her son carries the banner at the head of the parades.Uncle Shawn holds his own head, especially when the courts award Laura full custody of John Paul Jones, after Uncle Shawn has cared for the boy for four years. All the jokes stop, and all bets are off.In fact, so is Grandma, with the toddler in tow, into the wilds. Problems find solutions. The depths of Laura's propel this mystery, and we are left with resolution and the knowledge that there is noeasy win, where the love of a child is concerned.
