Helen, still dealing with her own childhood tragedy, is reluctantly pulled into another family’s crisis. A bombing has put J.P. in a coma, killed his father, and exploded the feud between his older brothers, an angry atheist and a priest whose followers may have been involved.

Unlike his brothers, J.P. has never taken life or faith too seriously. But his grief and his own near-death experiences may have changed that. He meets his match when he meets Helen, whose pointed humor spares no one as she wrangles three brothers into dealing with their blind spots and each other.
