| 520 | |a "Gary Waldman is a grief-stricken former tennis coach slowly reentering the world after the death of his wife. As he struggles to remain a good father to his six-year-old son, Waldman finds unexpected comfort and stability in the rule-bound confines of the TSA, working as a Transportation Security Officer in upstate New York. Though Waldman considers himself an ordinary man, his life is turned upside down by an extraordinary circumstance when he uses CPR to bring a passenger back from the dead. His career's sudden upward trajectory challenges his desire for simple security, and is complicated by his ambitious boss, his militaristic brother-in-law, and the troubled stepdaughter of the millionaire whose life he saved. Part airport thriller, part family drama, part love story, In Security explores how those who strive to protect us are often unable to protect themselves. Can someone who does security work ever feel truly safe? As the novel races toward its conclusion, Waldman discovers the limits of what he can control, both at the checkpoint and under his own roof"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
