Tom Adornetto Heart Needs a Second Chance

Annotation

Tom Adornetto tells the story of a family thrust into uncertainty and explores whether the bonds of love and marriage can withstand life's tragedy of an unexpected divorce. There is intervention by the jealous neighbor, the greedy psychologist, the aggressive attorney, the shelter for battered women, and Bob's employer. Bob's heart is heavy with the loss of his wife's love and the separation from his children, a separation that turns his world upside down. Bob must endure a system that has become overcautious in protecting women and children from domestic violence. He has new life experiences and gains insights into two horrible evils of society: murder and suicide. Tom Adornetto weaves a compelling and compassionate story of courage in the face of unimaginable loss and exploring the strength it takes to conquer our greatest fears and violent impulses of revenge. Bob cannot let go because the past obsesses the present and obstructs his future. He pleads and begs for a second chance to talk out their differences.
