Description：
Gwen still has her father's phone number memorized. She still books flights home for the holidays. She has been holding onto a version of him that may only have ever existed in her memory — a man who once stood at an amusement park gate and swore he'd give his daughters everything.
That man bought his stepson a luxury apartment. When Gwen's husband was in a coma and she called to borrow money, her father staged a performance of poverty while laughing about it with his friends.
That was the end of something.
*Gone Cold* is a quiet, devastating story about a daughter who loved her father longer than he deserved, and who had to learn — slowly, and then all at once — that letting go is not the same as giving up.
Some doors don't need to be slammed. You can simply stop knocking.
