An unhappily married young woman joins a poetry writing class where she meets a man whose name the Ouija Board had spelled out years ago as the man she would marry.

To free herself from her angry husband, she enlists an experienced therapist who helps her learn to take charge of her life.

About Alice

During my 40 years as a clinical social worker/therapist, I counseled many couples in distress and gained much insight into relationship difficulties.
