Crack Of Dawn

By Grace Link

Dawn’s hormones have gone AWOL …. along with her husband.
Tim lost his job and found Karan. And Dawn found them both, in a gay bar. Dawn welcomes Karan into her family. Not because she’s woke, but because he’s paying her mortgage.

THE SERIES
CRACK OF DAWN is a life-affirming comedy-drama about a menopausal woman in the midst of a
mixed-orientation meltdown. While on the outside, Dawn seems to be muddling through, inside
she’s crumbling – her unremitting hot flashes are the sworn enemy of her underwire bra and she’s
terrified that the prime years of her life have been stolen by a man who never truly loved her.
When Dawn discovers that Tim lost his job and that his lover, Karan, has been financially
supporting the family for months, Dawn must work out how to reclaim her “defunct” inner
narrative, muster some hutzpah, and make some moolah. There’s no manual for this.
It’s always darkest before Dawn rises.
