Trial and Error (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798858550563)

Trial and Error honored as a Finalist in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards!

Katie Richter is a divorced mom of two teenage girls, working full time during the day and attending law school at night, all while fighting to keep her younger daughter from spiraling into a life of endless partying and drug use. When Katie finally graduates from law school and begins working as an Assistant District Attorney, one of her daughters is murdered. She is forced to reckon with her failings as a mom as well as the ethical dilemma she faces when she realizes her remaining child might commit perjury to secure the killer's conviction.

Trial and Error is a novel that explores the inevitable sense of failure that single mothers feel regarding their parenting skills, even as they succeed in so many other facets of their lives. It uncovers the extraordinary struggle women face when confronted with the fallacy of work/family balance, focusing on the fraught relationships that often evolve between a driven single mother and her coming-of-age daughters, all in the guise of a good legal drama.
