The Good Daddy can be an intense, psychological book about one doctor's suspense-filled quest to unlock the mind of the suspected politics assassin: his 20-year-old child. As the principle of Rheumatology at Columbia Presbyterian, Dr. Paul Allen's niche is diagnosing patients with conflicting symptoms, patients other doctors have given up on. He lives a contented life in Westport with his second wife and their twin sons - hard earned after a failed marriage previously in his job that produced a child named Daniel. Within the harrowing opening picture of the provocative and influencing book, Dr. Allen is house with his family when a televised news article announces that the Democratic applicant for leader has been shot at a rally, and Daniel is captured on training video as the assassin. Daniel Allen is definitely a good child - a decent student, popular - but, as a child of divorce, used to shuttling back and forth between parents, he's also something of the drifter. Which might be why, at the age of nineteen, he silently drops out of Vassar and starts an aimless voyage across the AMERICA, where he sheds his former skin and eventually even changes his name to Carter Allen Cash. Advised alternately from the point of view of the guilt-ridden, motivated dad and his meandering, ruminative child, The Good Daddy is a powerfully mental page-turner that helps to keep one guessing before very end. That is an absorbing and genuine book about the responsibilities - and restrictions - of being a parent or guardian and our capacity to provide our children with unconditional love in the face of an unthinkable situation.
