Now,on the morning of Robert Hamlin’s 45th birthday, in the last yearof setting fire to the world, everything is about to ignite again.How many strangers make a family? When does water flow thickerthan blood? The universe is a random and violent place, after all,where souls-the lucky ones-find their way back eventually tothe source of human kindness.
