One day, Jessica Danger's life is shattered when she receives a phone call informing her that her long estranged father - the man who once tried to kill her - is now dying of liver failure. Danger faces an impossible choice: abandon her father, or care for the man who caused her so much pain and fear. This unflinching and profound memoir delves into the dark heart of addiction, the tangled web of family myths, and the agonizing journey to forgiveness. As she spends a year caring for her dying father, Danger unearths the truth about his past and confronts the unsettling ways she sees herself reflected in the man she thought she hated. This is a powerful story of reckoning, redemption, and the enduring complexities of family and love.
