Staff Pick of the Week is Always Watching\u201d by Chevy Stevens. From the book jacket:<\/p>\n
She helps people put their demons to rest.<\/em><\/p>\n But she has a few of her own\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n In the lockdown ward of a psychiatric hospital, Dr. Nadine Lavoie is in her element. She has the tools to help people, and she has the desire\u2014healing broken families is what she lives for. But Nadine doesn\u2019t want to look too closely at her own past because there are whole chunks of her life that are black holes. It takes all her willpower to tamp down her recurrent claustrophobia, and her daughter, Lisa, is a runaway who has been on the streets for seven years.<\/em><\/p>\n When a distraught woman, Heather Simeon, is brought into the Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit after a suicide attempt, Nadine gently coaxes her story out of her\u2014and learns of some troubling parallels with her own life. Digging deeper, Nadine is forced to confront her traumatic childhood, and the damage that began when she and her brother were brought by their mother to a remote commune on Vancouver Island. What happened to Nadine? Why was their family destroyed? And why does the name Aaron Quinn, the group\u2019s leader, bring complex feelings of terror to Nadine even today?<\/em><\/p>\n And then, the unthinkable happens, and Nadine realizes that danger is closer to home than she ever imagined. She has no choice but to face what terrifies her the most\u2026and fight back.<\/em><\/p>\n Sometimes you can leave the past, but you can never escape.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Parents can sign up for Dolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library by contacting the Wawa Public Library at 705-856-2244 ext. 290 or email us mtpl@wawa.cc. \u00a0This wonderful program provides FREE books on a monthly basis for children ages 0-5!\u00a0 Call or email the Wawa Public Library and sign up today.\u00a0 Our local contact is Cathy Cannon and she can be reached 705-856-2250 or email at cathycannon59@hotmail.com<\/a>.
