La migliore amica di Bob Bekwith è Sheila,sua moglie: per quattordici anni hanno vissuto e affrontato tutto insieme, in costante adorazione l'uno dell'altro. Completano le loro vite le figlie, Paula e Jessica. L'anno accademico è appena finito e Bob ha presenziato all'ultima riunione della facoltà e Cape Cod li attende per una lunga estate. Ma una telefonata basta a sconvolgere la loro esistenza. Quando Jean-Claude, un bambino di dieci anni, arriva per passare le vacanze con loro, ecco che Bob e Sheila, infelici e travagliati, vivono ormai come entità separate le loro rispettive tragedie. Persino Paula e Jessica, felici di quel nuovo compagno di giochi non riescono a sfuggire del tutto dalla bufera. Tutti fanno del loro meglio affinché la pace domestica venga ristabilita. Ma solo una persona può far si che il miracolo si compia.
