Publisher's Synopsis
On a winter's night, a homeless man seeking to get out of the cold enters an office building in Pittsburgh and camps out in the basement. He searches through boxes that he finds there and discovers one containing the office memorabilia of an attorney. He feels a strange affinity for the attorney, who he doesn't know, but who is sitting at his desk four floors up. The lawyer is about to be retained on a medical malpractice case representing the estate of a young mother who died tragically and unexpectedly. One of the deceased mother's children is a teenager, and a good writer. The lives of the homeless man, the lawyer, and the teenaged daughter intertwine in complex and sometimes mysterious ways.
