Bitter Like Orange Peel

<p>Six women. One man. Seven secrets. One could ruin them all. </p><p>Kit is a twenty-five-year-old archaeology undergrad who doesn't like to get her hands dirty. Life seems purposeless. But if she could track down her father Roger maybe her perspective would change. <br /><br />The only problem—Roger is as rotten as the decomposing oranges in her back yard according to the women in her life: Ailish her mother—an English literature professor who communicates in quotes and clichés and who still hasn't learned how to express emotion on her face; Ivy her half-sister—a depressed archaeologist with a slight case of nymphomania who fled to America after a divorce to become a waitress; and Eleanor Ivy's mother—a paediatric surgeon who embellishes her feelings with medical jargon and named her daughter after "Intravenous." <br /><br />Against all three women's wishes Kit decides to find Roger. Enter a sister Kit never knew about. But everyone else did.</p>
