After years aside, the five siblings end up together again at their ailing mother's bedside, captured in a deadlocked feud over her hospice health care. Into the morass steps Murron Teinetoa, one of the bastard children, who bears an idealistic hope of finally fitting in among her estranged relatives.In an interweaving narrative, Malae portrays the Felices in their formative years of the fifties; he excavates the personal lives of the siblings in the eighties and nineties; and he employs Murron in the present as she increases her son as a single mother.
