Good Eggs, Hardiman Rebecca

Bracing, hilarious, warm, this novel is as wayward and mad as the human heart. --Judy Blundell, New York Times bestselling author

A hilarious and heartfelt debut novel following three generations of a boisterous Irish family whose simmering tensions boil over when an American home aide enters the picture, becoming the calamitous force that will either undo or remake this family--perfect for fans of Whered You Go, Bernadette and Evvie Drake Starts Over.

When Kevin Gogartys irrepressible eighty-three-year-old mother, Millie, is caught shoplifting yet again, he has no choice but to hire a caretaker to keep an eye on her. Kevin, recently unemployed, is already at his wits end tending to a full house while his wife travels to exotic locales for work, leaving him solo with his sulky, misbehaved teenaged daughter, Aideen, whose troubles escalate when she befriends the campus rebel at her new boarding school.

Into the Gogarty fray steps Sylvia, Millies upbeat American home aide, who appears at first to be their saving grace--until she catapults the Gogarty clan into their greatest crisis yet.
