Every Day Is Mother's Day

Evelyn Axon is an aging agoraphobic and a reluctant medium. Plagued by vengeful poltergeists, she and her daughter Muriel spend their days holed up in a crumbling house avoiding the demonic spirits that have taken over their kitchen.
Isabel Field is the latest social worker assigned to break their self-imposed siege. But she has problems of her own to deal with: an over-sexed father who scours the laundrettes of their provincial town for conquests and an enthusiastic but anxiety-ridden lover, Colin Sidney, who attends night classes to escape his demanding wife.
As these dazed lives collide like flies in the summer heat, a spider is awakening. Is Muriel, that large and sullen presence, quite the idiot she seems?
