At age thirty-five, Morris Bliss is clamped in the jaws of
New York City inertia.
Enter Stefani, an eighteen-year-old girl in a Catholic
school uniform, and Morris’s once static life quickly unravels when Stefani’s

when his best friend, N. J., is recruited by an international cartel that
controls global economics and local sex markets, and Morris is called in to
save N. J.’s bacon. But most importantly, Morris’s father, a taciturn widower,
finally reveals the truth surrounding the strange death of Morris’s mother.
With the agony of his inertia finally broken, Morris Bliss
fights to keep his life from careening out of control. He must learn to adapt
if he is to survive.
