Charlie Crosby had a pretty standard life until his 13 year old daughter Kate is killed on her bike after being hit by a car. To say he falls apart does not really do justice to the bulk of this book that tells the tale of the year after Kate's death. Turns our being Kate's father was really the only thing that gave Charlie any meaning in his life or satisfaction. He tumbles into despair, drug addiction and a depression with magical elements. It is sad. Still, there is hope and despite this book centering on Charlie, you learn that the little town where he lives gives him the time and space to deal with his loss.
