Wishbones

Feather Tucker loves her mum more than anyone else in the entire world. They tell each other everything. There's only one problem: at 37 stone, Feather's mum is one of the most overweight people in England. When Feather comes home one New Year's Eve to find her mother in a diabetic coma, she realizes that this is a serious wakeup call. Something has to be done if she's to save her mum's life and pull her ever-more-distant family back together. But when Mum refuses to co-operate with Feather's attempts to help her, Feather realizes that her mum's problems run deeper than just an unhealthy appetite. Over time, Feather's mission to help Mum becomes an investigation. When did her mum's life spiral out of control, and why? What secret has her mum been hiding from her for all of these years? And most importantly: can Feather fix it?
