"This wonderful novel reminds us that in the search for what--or who--is missing from our lives, we often discover the unexpected. Smith writes with a keenly observant eye about the relationship between a father and son in the wake of abandonment and loss. This book is funny, tender, and wise." --Susan Jackson Rodgers, author of <i>Ex-Boyfriend On Aisle 6</i><br>
<br>This is the story of Harry Bailey and his attempts to repair a life that has come undone. He has been living with his father since his mother walked out on them both six years before, and together they have sunk into a lonely routine. But their humdrum habits are suddenly disrupted when the elder Bailey begins dating a woman half his age. As Harry gets drawn back into the surprises of a rediscovered life, he grows increasingly preoccupied both with his father's happiness and with Mona, the woman responsible.
