This fascinating story explores the dimensions of friendship and family, of loyalty and love … among people who are essentially good and caring, and generally wanting to do the right thing. But no one is perfect. Alan Colmar had been at a crossroads. Again. His third wife, Sylvie, rescued him from the wildness of his earlier personal life, which he carried into his 40s, while maintaining his successful career as a graphic designer. In his late 50s, she now was gone - a staggering blow. His commitment to his career, and the company he co-owns with his partner, was wavering. And, he was so alone. A divorced magazine reporter, Carol Buley, interviews him for an article on how men recover from losing a wife. They become friends; he meets her two adult children who quickly come to adore him. Alan’s and Carol’s relationship grows despite some uncertainty. Individually and collectively, Carol’s family provides Alan needed stability and joy. And then … Alan suffers a sudden, unexpected health crisis, triggering uncertainty in the minds of his friends and his estranged family. Who cares the most? Who is most responsible? Who acts? Who decides? We come to know these people very well.
