"To the medical world, I was a host body, surviving only to bring a
new life into the world. And while I wanted to die more than
anything in the world, I never wanted this. No, I never wanted to
cease to exist. This was the worst death of all." Jude Black lives
in that in-between, twilight place teetering on death but clinging
to life in order to bring her baby into this world. Only she knows
the circumstances surrounding her mysterious fall off the bluff
that landed her in the hospital being kept alive by medical
intervention. Only she knows who the father of her baby is. In this
poignantly crafted literary novel, the mystery unfolds and the
suspense builds as the consequences of Jude's decisions threaten to
reveal everyone's deceptions, even her own. Bluff offers a
sensitive look at essential questions such as the value of human
life, the consciousness of those in a coma and the morality of
terminating life support. At the core is the story of a tragically
misunderstood woman who finds peace, acceptance, understanding and
even love on her deathbed.
