The promise : a novel
(Book)

For the last five months, Tom Anderson has been without a job, a fact he's been hiding from his wife Jean and everyone else. He leaves each morning, pretending nothing has changed and spends his disheartening day rotating through coffee shops and the library, using their wifi to search job listings online. The stress of keeping this secret is beginning to put serious strain on his marriage. But Tom's not the only one hiding something. Jean Anderson has a secret of her own -- one that will seriously complicate their situation. Will the promises they made on their wedding day hold firm? --from back cover
