Anger? Sorrow? Relief? Geoff Mywell isn't sure what to feel when his wife leaves him and their three children for a man who can shower her with gifts that a teacher's salary can never buy. She quickly discovers that her lover is not all she hoped, but Geoff is left on the outside looking in as she moves from one man to the next. All Geoff knows is that he will always fight to protect her, even as her life becomes a death spiral of adultery and prostitution. But, Geoff's resolve is tested when she takes everything he owns and disappears into the darkness.
