Chapter 1

Steve Unger, a wealthy powerful CEO, falls from grace when he's brought down on charges of fraud, obstruction of justice and racketeering. When Steve cuts a deal to get out of prison, he realizes that his old life no longer exists - his wife and daughter don't want to live with him, his former colleagues shun him, and the whole world seems to despise him, even his parents refuse to help him and take him in. He visits his friend and lawyer Neil to retrieve his precious luxury sedan (to protect the car from creditors Neil has put it in his name). With nowhere else to turn, Steve meets Carol, a unique woman who has chosen to live in her car and who convinces Steve that his best bet while trying to get his life together is to do the same.
