Summary

Her whole life, Georgia’ s father has told her she will be the one to write his story. It’ s a story in which living is just a game of chance: why did Grant Tree survive when others didn’ t? Why did he find love and happiness, and a grown daughter to spill his story to so that she can record the whole beautiful, unlikely mess of it? Told in parallel to Grant’ s story is the life of his friend and dealer Brian Geoffrey Chambers, known in the book as Charlie, who was ultimately executed in Malaysia for drug smuggling.
