About One Bad Mother:
After one of her six-year-old twins puts a hammer through a wall, Megan Williams feels as if she is failing the test that is motherhood. And it’s one she’s been failing ever since her twins were born at twenty-nine weeks. Recognizing a hole in her life that is eerily similar to the space left in the drywall, Williams abandons her academic career to apply to the Police Academy. She needs a win. Through a grueling two-year process, Williams confronts her mental and physical abilities while dealing with the paralyzing fear that she is a bad mother and the real possibility she might not survive the cut at the Academy. When all is done, she make peace with a motherhood far different from the dream sold by our culture.
