Unwrapping: A Novel About Generational Trauma - Paperback

A ballplayer-turned-therapist meets a mysterious young woman with a history of trauma, and the clock is ticking on his effort to help her. First-time novelist Leslie Gura

draws upon his knowledge as a licensed clinical mental health counselor to weave a fascinating tale about what happens behind closed doors between client and therapist.

Unwrapping: A Novel About Generational Trauma allows Gura to bring clinical work alive through narrative storytelling with purpose and urgency. His past career as a journalist is evident in his ability to propel the story forward with tension as the client finds an unexpected new friend and the therapist tries to reconcile her violent past with her present-day self.
