Charlie and Esther Moore have been married nearly fifty years when the contented life theyve built together begins to crumble. Esther has been forgetful recently, but its rarely a problem until the day she puts her car in drive instead of reverse, flying off the end of the carport and into the backyard. Esthers accident and declining health shatter their reverie, and the couple must come to terms with all the paths their lives have not taken if they ever hope to pull their marriage out of winter. As always, the quirky characters of Deepwater Cove will pop in and out of the story and delight listeners.
