Once in a Lifetime
Millions adored Daphne Fields, for she shared  their passion,  their pain, their joy, and their  sorrow. But America's most popular  novelist remained a  closed book to the world -- guarding her life with   a fierce privacy no reporter could crack.Her life  hides a  myriad of secrets. The husband and  daughter she lost in a fire. The  son who barely survived  it and would be deaf forever. The victories,  the  defeats, the challenges of facing life as a woman  alone and  helping her son meet the challenges of his handicap.  A strong woman,  she would not accept defeat, or help from  anyone... until she found  she could no longer face it alone.
