Synopsis
This title provides a fascinating psychological exploration of the darker sides of kindness and caring. This is the true story of Carole Alden, a brilliant, yet eccentric mother of five, who had a deep and abiding need to help society's outcasts. But Carole's desire to help others extended beyond her meagre resources, even beyond the children she insisted she loved, yet sometimes neglected. Finally, in the remote reaches of Utah's Great Basin, Carole Alden shot and killed her husband. Dragging his heavy body from the house, she headed for a makeshift grave. Was the murder self-defence? Premeditated? Or was something else altogether? This searing exploration of deadly codependency takes the reader on a fascinating voyage of discovery that brings extraordinary insight to our deepest questions. Is kindness always the right answer? Is kindness always what it seems?, Carole Alden, a brilliant, yet eccentric mother of five, had a deep and abiding need to help society's outcasts. But Carole's desire to help others extended beyond her meagre resources, even beyond the children she insisted she loved, yet sometimes neglected., In this searing exploration of deadly codependency, the author takes the reader on a spellbinding voyage of discovery that examines the questions: Are some people naturally too caring? Is caring sometimes a mask for darker motives? Can science help us understand how our concerns for others can hurt everything we hold dear? This gripping story brings extraordinary insight to our deepest questions. Is kindness always the right answer? Is kindness always what it seems?
