Did you know that almost half the people in the United States admit to falling asleep behind the wheel of a vehicle at some time during their life? In this book, Craig Forest falls asleep while driving back to his home in Fernandina Beach after a weekend of fishing and fun in Cedar Key with his best friend, who dies as a result of the incident. Craig’s life savings and financial security are in jeopardy. His insurance company doesn’t think the claim is worth the amount of money demanded by the widow of his best friend. What happens when Craig, the insured, wants to settle the case but his insurance company refuses to do so for the amount demanded? A jury of six strangers must decide what is just and fair and what a life is worth.
