When Katey Bruscke learns that her older sister Reese has been murdered, she goes back ?home? to confront her past and break the news to her family, and friends. First thing off the bus she?s mugged at gunpoint by a guy who turns out to be someone she went to high school with. She sleeps with her younger sister?s boyfriend then, finally, identifies her sister?s bullet-ridden body in the morgue. Slowly Katey prepares to confront her parents with the news of Reese?s murder. Caren Gussoff offers a disturbing glimpse of the other side of the American Dream and a brilliant portrayal of the pain at the heart of family life.
