Easily one of the worst books I've read this year.
From the back cover:
Everyone knows a couple like the Morans. Maggie, with her scatterbrained ways and her just slightly irritaating, but goodhearted attempts to make everything ring for everyone...And Ira, infinitely patient, who's addicted to solitaire and who whistles out popular tunes, the only barometer of his moods. They've learned all there is to know about each other---two ordinary lives in a comfortable routine marriage.
But on the road to a friend's funeral, they make some unexpected detours--and discover how extraordinary their ordinary lives really are...
