In this novel of family struggle and redemption, a mother struggles to save her three children from the devastating consequences of poverty and the dysfunction of a broken home by forcing them to fend for themselves. Their father has forgotten one simple thing, that when you make babies, you make promises. The story lifts you above yourself with live action, liberated by an animating sense of possibility. Bestselling author Meredith draws on his own powerful emotions and African American roots, showcasing his best writing yet. Dion, stifled by a self-imposed exile, sufferers from the poverty of low self-esteem, paranoia, and hypersensitivity, wondering why they keep calling him nigga. Jacob is a shy and impressionable child, until he is forced to fight his way out of his shell with a terrible vengeance. Janet is much too young to take on the mother role for her siblings, but she has to grow up fast enough to keep up and stay ahead of the madness. Mother is the name of a god on the lips of small children, but when they can't believe in Mama, they find it very hard to believe in God. Fed up with the bureaucracy of social services and foster care and determined to stay together by any means necessary, the children sell their souls for the nearest comfort zone, propelling them into a saga of emotional madness fueled by drugs, sex, and murder. Meredith's moving story, No Ways Home, is another novel bent on the high adventure of tragedy, comedy, bitterness, and hope-a story for anyone who has ever faced insurmountable obstacles and prayed for a happy ending only to discover you'd have to reach deep within yourself to find it.
