“I don’t know how, and I don’t know why, but I think I died today.”
So begins the complex and mysterious journey of Gavin Goode and his family. What happened to Gavin and why? What secrets emerge along the way? Frankie, his wife and a dress store owner, feels guilty about something, but what? His son, Ryan, who owns an ice cream parlor, and daughter-in-law, Jenna, who is a bank manager, are expecting their first baby. How will Gavin’s trauma affect them? And what of Rosemary, Frankie’s best friend? Or Ben Hillman and eleven-year-old, Christopher? How are they implicated in the events that unfold around Gavin’s misfortune?
Like many of us, Gavin Goode will deal with life changing events that are beyond his control; events that will take him on a journey of discovery, one in which he will come face-to-face what matters most in his life.
