Life is good, until it isn't. Whether unexpected illness, a drunk driver, or betrayal by the spouse you love more than life itself, disaster walks behind you, over your left shoulder and three paces to your rear. God laughs as you make your plans. Adversity reveals the character of our souls. Does Brad Taylor, our reluctant hero, cry "why me," and allow the winds of fate and the will of others to direct his path through a waking nightmare? Or does he stand up to the unexpected and forge his own path, surprising friend and foe alike, overcoming all odds? Is revenge a dish best served cold--or is a life well lived the best revenge of all? Discover how one man answered these questions, faced his nightmare, the betrayal he never saw coming. Make your own decision about his actions and reactions. Is he a calm hero, a crazed over-reacting fool, or that complex mixture of good and bad, right and wrong, smart and stupid that we call an ordinary man? However you judge him, prepare to be surprised.
