The Odyssey of a Bad Mother

I’m going to spend 2026 in 1982; come join me.

The Odyssey of a Bad Mother takes place in 1982 in Bellevue, Washington, right outside of Seattle.

Come reminisce about the time of Pop Rocks, Tab, Hall & Oates, Heather Locklear, E.T., Reaganomics, and the changing of the family dynamic.

Set against the backdrop of Bill Gates’s rise and MS-DOS and the European expansion of Microsoft, finally to their home in Redmond. The Odyssey of a Bad Mother takes a look at three flawed women in the affluent Parkside community who are all deemed bad mothers.

They come together in a desperate quest to find answers to the kidnapping of one of their sons, a local boy, Ryan McKinnon. With no clues, no answers, and little hope, these three bad mothers forge the path to finding what happened to him.

During a time when the police were on overload, a time in American history when children’s kidnappings were becoming prominent in the United States, and with respect to the milk carton campaign, The Odyssey of a Bad Mother takes a hard look at the police and their fight to bring Ryan McKinnon home.

What happened to Ryan McKinnon that night at the movies when he went missing?

With Ryan as the narrator of the terrifying tale, his story sheds light on compassion, empathy, and psychological insight on what it means to struggle, self-preserve, fall apart, and pick yourself up again for the greater good!
