About this listen

Michelle DePalma expected to jet into Two Wells, Texas, check on her elderly mother, and hurry back to her orderly life in Atlanta, where she has a happy marriage and satisfying career. Instead, she finds her mother, Lola Hanson, hovered over the bludgeoned body of her caregiver, Brittany Landers.

Since the events of 9/11, one month earlier, Lola's memory loss has amplified, and the family suspects Alzheimer's. Now Lola can't tell anyone what happened to Brittany. The agency that provides home care for Lola promptly withdraws its services. Michelle is stuck in her hometown longer than planned as she cares for a mother with whom she has never been close and tries to prove her innocence. The police officers who investigate the crime are old antagonists from grade school. A secret thought to be long buried—that Michelle bore a son out of wedlock and gave him up for adoption—surfaces when a surprise daughter-in-law and granddaughter show up, distracting Michelle from her quest to solve the murder. And then she stumbles upon a motive that makes Lola look even more guilty.

Going Home was inspired by the author's mother's battle with Alzheimer's and explores the challenge of solving a murder mystery when a potential witness cannot rely on her memory. Written from the perspective of a baby boomer forced to reverse roles with her parents, it crosses into the mainstream genre of women's fiction and touches on increasingly common issues such as elder abuse and end-of-life decisions.
