Beneath the Surface

About the Book

From different Caribbean backgrounds, Boni, Adlyn and Regina come together in Ottawa, Ontario and develop a close friendship; one that is certainly not without its ups and downs. Boni, who like Adlyn is a nurse at Universal hospital, gladly steps in to fill the role of surrogate mother to Regina's daughter Tiffany, when Regina seems to be pursuing a path of self-destruction. This act leads to surprising changes in Boni's life. But perhaps her biggest surprise of all is the revelation that decades earlier, her own mother, Rebecca, had traveled a similar path. Does this have anything to do with 'the plan' Boni's maternal grandmother told her about many years ago?
