Part I of the Auntie Dote ChroniclesIf there was one thing that moved Aurora Claren, it was death. The quicker, the better... except when it was her own mother who was dying. Family always made things complicated.Like with Dusty, her thirteen-year-old nephew, the pudgy apple of her eye. In the two years since her last visit he had grown sullen and aloof. His mom thought it was precocious teenage angst, but his aunt suspected there was something more.She was right. Her nephew was facing a decisive moment in his life and she was the only one who could help. But the past she had spent her whole life escaping was there waiting for her. So many harsh memories, loose ends, dodgy donuts... everyone deserved a second chance but not always a better outcome.
