A wealthy land developer suddenly converts to evangelical Christianity, which flummoxes his wife, a heavy drinking socialite, and daughter, an outstanding high school tennis player, and sends them into a series of unexpected events with an agnostic tennis coach, a closet Algerian Muslim tennis player, and underworld figures threatening to bankrupt the land developer. The often profane and comic novel is not moralistic or cautionary but offers a realistic glimpse into events when strong religious feelings engulf a family and send them on a journey no one expects.
