Troubled Waters

Jess Hamilton believes he could never fill the shoes of his late father. Now responsible for a century-old family business and a boys home, Jess knows he is expected to uphold a great patriarchal legacy. As Jess struggles to find a footing in a world full of new obligations, he finds himself drawn into an ugly court battle where a child s future or perhaps even his life is at stake. For Jess s wife Tamra, her own inadequacies surface when her abusive mother comes to be cared for in the Hamilton family home. Even though Tamra has forgiven her mother, the situation brings an ugly past much too close to the present which only adds to Tamra s rising feelings of discouragement as she searches for help with her own physical challenges.
