But before he can make his research public, his life is tragically taken during a mugging in the parking ramp as he was making his way to give his presentation. Devastated, Peter doesn’t know what to do. He seeks comfort from his wife, Mollie, though the loss of Grandpop, as he is affectionately called by Peter, has caused some dormant conflicts between them to bubble to the surface.
