A People Magazine Great ReadFrom New York Times bestselling author and neuroscientist Lisa Genova comes a heartbreakingvery human novel (Matthew Thomas, author of We Are Not Ourselves) that does for Huntingtons disease what her debut novel Still Alice did for Alzheimers.Joe OBrien is a forty-three-year-old police officer from the Irish Catholic neighborhood of Charlestown, Massachusetts. A devoted husband, proud father of four children in their twenties, and respected officer, Joe begins experiencing bouts of disorganized thinking, uncharacteristic temper outbursts, and strange, involuntary movements.
