When Callie is whisked away to Paris for two weeks by her affluent and subtly contemptuous mother and sister¿before the newlyweds have had a chance to settle into their new life together¿Lucas Amado, a distracted working class romantic and part-time graduate student, is overwhelmed by doubt and a sense of foreboding.Into the breach steps Marla Tupo, a cheerful and attractive, though at times mystifying older woman he meets at his new job. What at first appears to be a harmless affinity between a disillusioned and conflicted young husband, and a sympathetic middle-aged divorcée, soon deteriorates into a complicated mutual dependence that leads to devastating consequences.Lucas reveals to us his desperate battle to save his marriage, family and sanity. Unexpected events push him across real and imagined borders, both at home and abroad, where the lines between reality and dream and belief and unbelief are often blurred, and where saints, psychopaths, and everyday people offer the young husband and father glimpses into the mysteries of the human mind and heart and present him choices he could never have imagined.
