The Daughter Bond is a thought-provoking and compelling tale of strength, resilience, grief, and the bonds of love. The bonds that make us, the bonds that break us. As Irene Míral was growing up, her mother, Alma, shared personal stories of harrowing domestic violence and strange perceptual events. Irene becomes a psychologist because she wants to help women like her mother. After Alma's funeral, Irene is more determined than ever to make the new PTSD unit she leads at Lakeside Hospital a success. She sees her work as a crucial mission, the program as a vital prototype. She did not expect to have to fight for its survival and the dignity of the women under her care. As she works to restore normalcy to the lives of eight traumatized women, she must overcome the chauvinism and bias of the supervising psychiatrist. Irene is determined, no matter the obstacles. However, she does not expect his sexual harassment or the anonymous complaints of misconduct that the doctor holds over her head. Driven by a hope to find answers to her mother's mysterious perceptual experiences, Irene accepts an invitation to collaborate on a paranormal research project. She disregards the unconventional aspects of the research and dedicates all her free time to the lab. She and her research partner, David, are convinced their subjects possess a unique gift for telepathic communication. Willing to experiment beyond the established norms of scientific inquiry, they dare to straddle the realms of science and the paranormal. Irene does not know it yet, but her career may be at stake. And she does not know she is falling in love, despite her mother's warnings that men are evil. Soon, Irene finds herself in an emotional storm. Grappling with the intense feelings she is developing for David and the upheaval at Lakeside, she faces a crossroads in her life's journey. The consequences are unforeseen; the repercussions are staggering.
