Herb’s charmed life with his dear wife, Susan, in their Key West house is coming undone. Susan, in her seventies, now needs constant care, and Herb is in denial about his own ailing health. The one bright spot is the arrival of an endlessly optimistic manicurist calling herself Renee, who brings Susan a much-needed sense of contentment.

So when Herb suggests one last joy ride in his Porsche with Dee Dee riding shotgun, the light out for parts north, setting off a Silver Alert.
