UNCLE DAD is "MUST READING!"
-WOMAN Magazine
What place can a weekend father hold in the lives and hearts of his children? What claim can he have on their love when he left his family for another woman? And is there any hope for forgiveness?

There are no good guys or bad guys, no winners or losers in this sensitive and powerful account. There are only human beings trying to grapple with anger and loneliness and the unending pain of loss-and, ultimately, with the joy of mutual forgiveness and understanding.
