Miz Bambo

Carol Craig Cowan-Lanyon had an idyllic childhood. Her mother, "Miz Bambo", embodied comfort, filling her world with art and magic. Her father kept her safe and told her she could be anything she wanted to be. But when Carol's father died just before her 15th birthday, the foundations began to crack. Without warning, Bambo became volatile and impossible to please. And at the end of Carol's sophomore year in college, Bambo disrupted all of her plans for the future with a declaration: They would be spending the next year abroad.
