In this novel, each of the MacKenzie family tells their stories in nine, wildly opposed points of view. Starting at a family reunion, three generations of the MacKenzies face off against each other. They discover that terrorism is as intimate as one's own family. DUCK AND COVER is a 'wicked black comedy' of a family who fights their wars 'on the home front.' As one of the MacKenzie children says, 'The way nuclear families are put together, it just makes sense they would explode.'
