This was a very uplifting book. The protagonist's father, Rex Conner, has an experience in his youth that defines his life--an experience that took only 17 seconds. This book is about how his son Cole Connor teaches others about his father's experience and how he uses what his father learns to help people change their lives.
A bit heavy handed on the emotional punches, this book was still a lot of fun to read and a good reminder of what our interactions with others should be.
If you're feeling cynical, save this book for another day because it is full of happy endings and good things coming out of bad experiences, and relationship resolutions and other such things--the stuff that you hope life contains, but you fear it may not. I felt very manipulated by the author, but I still felt good when I turned that last page. It's a quick, pleasant, uplifting read.
