The Seven Rules of Elvira Carr

Elvira Carr believes in rules. She also strongly believes in crisp schedules, clear guidelines, and taking people at face value. Not that the twenty-seven-year-old sees many people. After several unfortunate incidents, her overbearing mother keeps her at home. But when her mother has a stroke and lands in a nursing home, Elvira is suddenly on her own, and the story she's always heard about her father starts to show some obvious holes. To help her navigate the puzzles of her changing world, she draws up seven ironclad rules and sets out to take charge of her life, her way. Used paperback, good condition.
