Kate Mitchell, a single mother of a boy with autism, once dreamed of climbing the corporate ladder and living the good life with the man of her dreams. Now, with an abusive ex-husband, escalating medical bills, and fading hope for her son’s future, she decides she has no choice but to sue the giant pharmaceutical company that she believes is responsible for her son’s illness. Through a random twist of fate, the young and inexperienced lawyer, James Mouton, takes her case, and the two embark on a journey that will forever change their lives and potentially those of thousands of others affected by the growing epidemic of autism.

“Hindsight is both entertaining and deeply touching; I literally couldn’t put it down. It touched on every facet of the metamorphosis a family affected by autism goes through. It’s a complete life change for every family and the change in humanism goes well beyond the child; that is, social fun often disappears, overwhelming costs, time expenditures, and significant emotional ups and downs become commonplace. This is real human change, not dry clinical summation. And with 1 in 100 children being diagnosed with autism these days, this book is a window into what all of us are involved with – whether directly or simply by association. I hope everyone reads this book!” - Michael M. Stelzer, DC, DACNB, CCSP, Childhood Development Center of San Antonio

“Hindsight has all the elements of a great story: plot, interesting characters, suspense and romance! I highly recommend it to anyone who would appreciate a hopeful resolution to one of our most significant modern mysteries. Thanks, Susan, for your insight and creativity!” - Dema Stout, M.A., Certified RDI Consultant, Certified Special Education Teacher

“This is a very emotional and gripping story about the daily hardships, devastation and undeniable devoted love required when you have a child on the autism spectrum. Many parents, both inside and outside the autism community, will surely identify with Kate and her determination to help her son achieve great things … even with
incredible odds stacked against her.” – Kay Osborn, Director of St. Andrews Weekday School and Great Beginnings
