Along the way, skeptics mock him, his own past taunts him, and saboteurs resolve to stop him. But Josh is determined to complete his “bucket list from hell” and prove that who he was is not as important as who he can become. Operating in unfamiliar territory, Josh turns to a cast of endearing characters to aid him on his secret journey—persons he’d have previously shunned.

Laura Williams hasn’t stepped foot in her hometown since she was old enough to leave.

But when a doctor calls about her mom’s declining medical condition, she has no choice but to return home and look after her.
