This is a fictional story about a powerful and prosperous New York attorney who experienced a profound change in his personal and professional values and beliefs when he lost his daughter in a fatal car accident. In this story you will follow James Brannon through his personal transformation, which was aided by his grandchildren and the townspeople of the community where his deceased daughter had been so highly regarded by all. As you read you will see the veneer of a powerful New York attorney and businessman stripped away to reveal a decent and honest soul that loves his family and his neighbors and fellow citizens. You will also see how, without that veneer of power, such a decent and honest soul can be crushed by those in power. By the time you reach the shocking climax of the story, you will wonder if it is true that "nice guys finish last."
