Okay, two of my friends have commented that they need more information. This really isnt the way you pick a book. You get the jacket flap too. So here it is... This is the query that the agents get as well- without all the "thanks for your time and consideration stuff." Feel free to pick at it.
There is a moment in every woman’s life when she realizes she’s changed. The person she used to be vanished, and what’s left is strangely unfamiliar. Frannie Murdock used to be happy. She used to be fun to be around. Now she’s lost her damn mind.
A master at changing her thoughts at a moment’s notice, Frannie finds denial, and huge amounts of alcohol, to be her best option for coping with the loss of her twin brother to Leukemia. But when she snaps mentally, and is faced with the same health concerns as her brother, Frannie sinks to her breaking point. With a sloppy, stray dog to the rescue, and her Native American therapist’s spiritual perspectives, Frannie might be able to find solid ground. Confronting her past, and her estranged relationship with her mother, may finally allow her to love a man who is consistent and dependable. While the only connection that ever mattered to Frannie, is the bond between her and her twin brother, the question becomes: is that bond strong enough to exist beyond his death, and can she still recognize it?
This book is Women’s Fiction. While it has paranormal elements, the story is more about a women’s ability to heal her spirit. My book has been called a tear jerker and a page turner, although I think it’s also sarcastic and funny. At the center, it is a search for spirit and an inquiry into how much a soul can endure.

Hey Suz-You are "write"- I would read the jacket & then buy the book-which I would do on this one-it has elements I like-woman-tragedy-making it better -it seems like a lot going on- alcohol, craziness, disease, bad relationship with Mother, dog, and "paranormal" stuff- is it too much? remains to be read! I think Frannie will be a strong character in the end-but we will have lots of heartache. I look forward to chapters 2.............
