This was a disturbing story where we discover the complicated past between Grace and her mother. After many years of being estranged, the two are thrown back together amidst the early days of the pandemic.
Like with many of us, Parental proximity can stir up a part of us we thought was long healed or well buried. Grace wasn’t prepared for this emotional upheaval. Much-added stress for this duo on top of the Covid chaos that was already unfolding in their daily lives — a recipe for trouble. A new slant on how unique circumstances have the possibility of widening the cracks in our consciousness and can trigger a descent into madness.
I enjoyed this dark journey and recommend it to all fans of the macabre.
I’d like to thank NetGalley for an advanced copy of Mothered for my unbiased evaluation. 4 stars
