Don't be misled by Lee Reinecke's fairy tale life-her handsome family, the house in a historical preservation district, a psychology career in the suburbs. A survivor of child sexual assault, she grapples with perfectionism, a turbulent marriage, and an undercurrent of rage. ¿Lee's husband's entanglement with a coworker and shady professional ethics rock her black and white world. And feeling smothered under their mother's white-knuckled grip, her sons rebel, walking on the edge instead of on the line. In a spiral of anxiety, Lee plunges into a survivor's group, then individual counseling, and finally, a marriage enrichment weekend with the partner who betrayed her.
