Publisher's summary

He once was lost, and then he was found. Mickey Maguire returns to his childhood summer beach community steeped in sorrow, regret and loss. Having left the cozy beach town of Matunuck, Rhode Island, where all his relatives lived within five square-miles of each other, as a lost and confused nineteen-year-old new father, to marry his baby-mama and start a career in the music industry, he’d lost touch with old friends, broken bonds with his cousins and frayed the connections with his parents and siblings.While his mother suffers from the effects of a stroke and harrowing battle with cancer and his ailing father withers under the strain of caring for her, Mick returns after a twenty-year absence to move his parents to assisted living facilities and sell the beloved family home that underpinned his entire childhood. As he encounters his long-lost best friends from his youth and reconnects with his family, he reconsiders the choices he’s made to uproot his life to the west coast and the decision to sell the house. But, with a massive storm coming up the coast, the pressure of his divorce straining his dire financial condition, the sale nearly finalized and the health of his parents rapidly declining, Mick faces the formidable foe of time to save the house, rebuild his life and solidify the bonds of his disconnected family before it’s too late.
