I never thought that I would be here. Things like this happened to other people. Not to me ... I was about to be fired. In a small Midwestern town, a school superintendent commits social suicide when he divorces his wife. He's shocked when his marriage collapses, but he's even more bewildered by the community's reaction. He is now the sinner, pariah, and villain. For someone who so loves the limelight, this is not the attention he wants, so he does his best to escape, seeking solace on the open road. Even far away from home, though, he's haunted by what awaits him when he gets back. He's not prepared for the hateful glares from neighbors or bloodthirsty school board members, his particular nemeses. Death and divorce, despair and disillusionment, follow this man as he faces life-altering changes in his personal and professional lives. Without his marriage, who is he? Without his career, what is he? He is forced to face problems and flee others all while struggling to reinvent himself. Robbed of the joys he once knew, he must find a new purpose, eventually realizing that rebirth is painful but worth the reward.
