Summary | When Kumiko's adult daughters place her in an assisted living home, she gives it a try, but it's not where she wants to be. She sneaks aways and finds a bachelor apartment, keeping the location secret while communicating online with her eldest daughter. Kumiko is happy with the small daily pleasures: decorating as she pleases, eating what she wants, and swimming in the community pool. But something has followed her--Death's shadow. Kumiko's life is shattered when Death's shadow swoops in to collect her. With her quick mind and sense of humor, Kumiko, with the help of friends new and old, is prepared for the fight of her life. But how long can an old woman thwart fate? |
