Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Coco Easton is a 48 year old married mother of two living comfortably in a Rhode Island suburb until a drunken New Year's Eve proclamation pushes her to find a job she didn't know she needed. After several demoralizing rejections, she rushes to get volunteer work to save face before her next book club meeting. Circumstances lead her to The Mission of Hope where she encounters a handful of colorful characters including: Ernie, the father figure of the organization who is a former cop with a tragic past; Bull, the intimidating truck driver; Daisy, a teenage thief bearing a secret family burden, and an enormous stray dog trying to slip into the ragtag family himself. Day after day, as Coco tries to find her footing with this new group, she struggles to balance the dichotomy of her privileged home life with the hard realities faced by the Mission's clients who are struggling against circumstances as varied as the used furniture and bedding they leave with. This, along with the lives of the other Mission volunteers, fuels a story full of humor, unraveling secrets, and silver linings. This item is printed on demand.
