More DescriptionHow far would you go to keep a promise? Neo-hippie turned ICU nurse, Bernadette Rogers is no stranger to the blunt realities of death. But her mother's request to help her father-who's disappearing into the abyss of dementia-go "peacefully" blindsides her. Her mother thinks it's assisted suicide. Bernadette knows better.Even if they do it for all the right reasons, it would still be murder.Years ago when her father lined the family up and made them swear never to put him in a nursing home, they became a family divided - they just didn't know it yet. That's the funny thing about promises, people can have their own version of the truth. Surrounded by conflicting voices and with her mother reaching the end of her rope, Bernadette is forced to make an agonizing decision about her beloved father and figure out just how far she's willing to go for love.For fans of Jodi Picoult and Lisa Genova, House on Fire is an unforgettable story of family, friendship, and the promises we aren't sure anyone should honor.
