Description
Reuben has a great marriage and a loving family. He has personal health and vitality enough for a killer squash game. He's been blessed with financial success and has a car filled with the latest gadgets. The security that he's on top of his own world. Then, with almost biblical abruptness, Reuben's universe tumbles and almost everything he has come to count on is gone. In our spiritually brutal age, how does a man put himself together again?
