Description
Jessa-Lynn Morton's life is turned upside down when she discovers her father has taken his own life in their family taxidermy shop. With the business struggling to stay afloat, Jessa steps up to manage it, but the rest of the Morton family is crumbling around her. As she navigates this difficult time, Jessa must confront the eccentricities of her loved ones and figure out where she fits in. Her mother's behavior becomes increasingly erratic, while her brother Milo withdraws from life altogether. Meanwhile, Brynn - the only person Jessa has ever been in love with - walks out without a word. Desperate to find a way to support herself and her family, Jessa turns to unconventional means of generating income. As tensions rise, Jessa is forced to confront the harsh realities of her family's dynamics and learn who these people truly are. As the Mortons reach a breaking point, Jessa must come to terms with her own identity and place within the family. This poignant and humorous novel explores themes of grief, love, and acceptance in a world that often seems too much to handle.
