SUMMARY:Donna Levin
DESCRIPTION:Local author\, editor\, and writing teacher Donna Levin celebrates the launch of her captivating new work of fiction\, There’s More Than One Way Home. Refreshments will be served. \nAnna Kagen seems to have it all: She’s young\, beautiful\, and married to a wealthy\, prominent man. \nBut within the walls of her San Francisco mansion\, she spends her time dodging her husband’s barbs and hunting down potential friends for her son\, Jack\, a 10-year-old on the autistic spectrum. \nThat old life suddenly seems idyllic when\, on a school field trip\, she makes the small error in judgment that sets in motion a chain of events that leads to another boy’s death. Suddenly Jack is a suspect\, her husband’s career is in jeopardy\, and Anna has to choose between loyalty to her son … and what may be her one chance at happiness.
