Plot Summary:
John Harding had a high-powered career, a loving wife, and a beautiful son. He's lost it all and has returned to his home town of Boland, New Hampshire, teetering on the brink of suicide. But an old friend asks John to manage his old Little League team, the Angels. Reluctantly, he agrees, and meets a hopeless player who bears a striking resemblance to his dead son—and through their extroardinary relationship, John finds the wisdom in living that he thought he had lost forever. This is a heat-warming story that most readers would love to read.
