On Thanksgiving Day 2007, three generations of the Olson family gather. Eleanor and Gavin worry about their daughter, Ginny, an unmarried academic in her 30s, a newly adopted Indian daughter, and about their son, Douglas, who has recently been caught in the imploding real-estate bubble. But Ginny and Douglas, determined to have a perfect holiday, keep their troubles secret, a skill they have learned from their parents.

As old grudges, personality clashes, and a stove malfunction spiral the Olson's holiday into a tense and foodless afternoon, 17-year-old Kijo Jackson and his best friend, Spider, set out from the housing projects on a mysterious job. As these two families - one white, one black - head toward a violent and inevitable encounter, Jennifer Vanderbes masterfully lays bare the fraught lives of these fascinating characters and the lengths to which they will go to protect their families.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An absorbing and suspenseful story about the dynamics of family, generational misunderstandings, and the desperate ways one copes with both the arbitrariness of fate and the consequences of one's choices." ( Library Journal)

After reading the reviews I thought I’d purchase. This book is basically a detailed bio of a fictional family not any sort of murder mystery or crime novel. In fact the crime that takes place at the end truly has zero significance to the broader story and I’m not sure why it was even added. Disappointed!!

Don’t bother!
