Captain Saturday

the long version

"Will Baggett, TV weatherman, is Raleigh, North Carolina's biggest celebrity. With adoring fans, a nice house, a son in medical school, and a beautiful wife who is one of the town's top real-estate brokers, Will's life is pretty much exactly the way he wants it.". "But his well-ordered world comes crashing down when a heartless conglomerate buys the TV station and decides that Will is a relic of the past. Trying to get his job back, he gets himself arrested and badly injures both his knee and his pride. That's when Will starts to realize that more than just his career is in jeopardy: his marriage is coming apart and his son doesn't like him very much.". "Just when he thinks he's hit bottom, the past he thought he didn't have comes calling in the form of his cousin, Wingfoot Baggett, who takes Will for some R&R back home on the Cape Fear River. There, some long-neglected accounts are waiting to be settled."--BOOK JACKET.
