His dependency, vodka. Her dependency, him.
When Kat Torrington discovers the depth of her husband Eric's secret drinking problem, she finds herself at a crossroads. Married three years with her first child on the way, Kat sees a fork in the road of her life: Should she stay or go?
Over the next three years, as the couple faces alcoholism and recovery with equal parts determination and failure, Kat considers her options. Some choices are heart-wrenching, others empowering, but all life- changing. Meanwhile, Kat's dream of a happy- ever-after hangs in the balance.
Forks & Knives is fiction inspired by the reality of addiction and codependency that millions of families battle. If you've ever wondered "what if I'd done things differently," Mimi Wahlfeldt's debut novel will entice you to re-examine those critical forks in your own life. No doubt, like knives, some of them cut deep.
