In Mommy's Shadow

By Anita Glaster

The narrative alternates close third-person scenes with narrator reflections that draw on clinical language-CBT, DBT concepts, and family-systems thinking-so the fiction reads as cautionary tales and case studies. Key arcs include Betty's affair and awakening, Margaret's jealousy and attempts at escape, Blair's impulsive choices and their consequences (including adoption and a later violent outcome), and the adult children's reckonings with addiction, mental health, and caregiving.

The tone moves from intimate domestic detail to broader moral contemplation, and the books conclude with practical discussion questions and author notes that invite reader reflection on family legacy and healing.
