"Rose Dennis wakes up in a hospital gown to discover that she's been committed to a nursing home's Alzheimer's Unit. Rose has no memory of her committal and is sure that something is very wrong. She escapes but faces a challenge in proving her sanity. Her relatives committed her, the legal papers were drawn up, the authorities side with the nursing home. But when a would-be killer shows up in her house, Rose knows that someone is trying to get rid of her. With the help of her sister Marion, granddaughter Mel, and Mel's friend Royal, Rose gathers her strength and fight back. But someone out there is determined to kill Rose--and they're holding all the cards."--Page 4 of cover. |
