Synopsis
Beth Cappadora, smart-mouthed and disorganized, has considered herself a good mother of her three children. Then her three-year-old son Ben disappears from the hotel while the whole family is visiting Chicago for Beth's 15th high-school reunion. Beth descends into depression, growing apart from her baby daughter and her disturbed son Vincent, who was supposed to have been watching Ben when he disappeared. While she continues her photography career and her husband goes about opening a Chicago restaurant, the Cappadoras' family structure implodes. Vincent becomes more and more guilty over the disappearance, the restaurant succeeds, and the family must move to the very city that they have come to dread. Then something unexpected happens.

Publisher's Note
The disappearance of her three-year-old son Ben threatens to drive a wedge between Beth Cappadora and her husband, Pat, and transforms her older son into a troubled delinquent, until, one day, nine years later, Ben comes back into their lives.

Industry reviews
"Don't bother predicting the end: there's a plot twist that'll spin you around no matter which way you're looking."
Newsweek - Jeff Giles (06/03/1996)

"If there's anything you need to do, get it done before you start reading this book, because once you start reading you will never stop....A touching, humane, and wonderfully written tale of ordinary people caught in the most extraordinary circumstances."
Advertisement - Judith Viorst 

"'The Deep End of the Ocean' burns itself into the memory line by line. It is by turns lyrical and startling, brilliant."
Advertisement - Kaye Gibbons 

"The pain of Mitchard's story is somewhat leavened by her moving evocation of everyday life--and of people struggling mightily to cope when that life goes awry....This isn't a story of stirring heroics but of lurking darkness, and of one family's slow stumble back into light."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Susan Heeger (07/14/1996)

"Ms. Mitchard's real story is about grief and how each member of this tormented family deals with it."
New York Times Book Review - Gail Collins (09/18/1996)
