Jerry Jones has gone out on a limb. At the age of 51, he took out a 30-year mortgage to buy a vacant store located in Killington, Vermont, without his wife's approval. Feeling betrayed, Monica, his wife, determines to undermine Jerry's plans in retribution for his thoughtlessness and neglect.
Along the way, Monica also toys with the possibility of a sexual fling with a man young enough to be her son. It's another way to hurt Jerry and fulfill what she is beginning to see as a pretty empty life. Clay, the young man, is interested in Sally, another older woman who is seeking to find her own place in life. Clay's Aunt Dora tries to guide her nephew onto the right path while she fights her own fears that someone or some thing is trying to harm her. She also has a deep need to keep a family secret.

Successful more than she thought possible, Monica later faces a more challenging prospect than being ignored during a business deal: seeking redemption from Jerry who is succumbing to the ravages of Alzheimer's Disease.
Set in eastern Vermont, this story portrays how emotions govern lives, causing individuals to consider adultery, deceit, revenge, and the taking of a life. It all culminates in a nursing home during a special Christmas, where peace is finally found.
