The boy spends his life taking care of his manic depressive mom. He can’t tell anyone about it, because they might take him away from her and she can’t live without him. She has always told him that his father is a Nobel prize winner, but when new facts are revealed he starts to question who he is and everything that he knows.
The boy, who’s name we never learn, narrates the story. We learn about his mothers "episodes", and how hard it is to live up to Nobel genes. The story is intense and heartfelt. I recommend this book to readers who like to take a look into the human condition. Michaels is also the author of Genesis Alpha; a must read for fans of thrillers.
