When she was nearly fourteen she had discovered a controversy surrounding her birth and learned that the woman raising her was not her mother.

The initial reunion with her biological mother was not the tear-jerker she had expected so when the families came together for the five-yearly family reunion emotions were running high. Life for Michelle was already full, juggling a career as the co-owner of SmallRock Publications, plus family life, but things were about to be turned on their head. A bungled robbery, a dead youth and a usually devoted husband who has started staying out all night with no explanation... Is Michelle's husband getting too close to her erstwhile mother, Delisia? A poignant, heart-warming tale of family relationships and conflict resolution, spiced with fast-paced drama, The Missing Years is the sequel to Sweet Home, Jamaica and the story unfolds on the beautiful island of Jamaica.
