One year ago, his wife, Arzz, left him after twenty-four years of marriage. Following twelve months of denial, he realizes that he feels numb to everything around him. Now, Ready is desperate to make amends and reconnect with Arzz and his two adult children. But is it too late?

Ready is about to learn the true nature of forgiveness and redemption as he undertakes his formidable quest for reconciliation. He finds a kindred spirit in Hillary Bush, an African-American woman he barely knows, but with whom he shares a particular bond. There are parallels in their lives that transcend coincidence, and Ready learns that she has known more than her share of personal tragedy. Ultimately, the strength she displays in the face of her suffering gives Ready the courage to go on when he finds himself in the "silver thaw" of his own life.
