Don Walker is a human resources manager for a mid-sized IT firm in Louisville, Kentucky. He is disenchanted with his profession and his employer. Divorced, he struggles with his fractious teen-aged daughter, and the seemingly intractable problems of his ex-wife, an alcoholic in an unhappy second marriage.
His dissolute younger sister only adds to the mix.
The only bright spot in his life is a new relationship with a younger, free-spirited woman. At thirty-nine years of age, he fears approaching middle age, and the loss of that relationship.
This story covers a brief period when Don's life seems to be spinning out of control. Only through an unexpected inspiration does he manage to develop a renewed focus on life, and an understanding of what truly matters.
