Step into the quiet, resonant orbit of Whitaker Rosselot – a gifted Atlanta cellist whose hands speak more easily than his voice. Haunted by the grief of losing his partner Maria in childbirth and the rejection of his church, he now navigates single fatherhood with his fiercely curious toddler Olive, whose world runs on bugs and dinosaurs.
His Family: A fractured Southern dynasty. Nine siblings caught between fundamentalist parents (Nathan and Sarah) and freedom. He's the reluctant glue binding them – fielding Ward's sanctimonious speeches, paying for disowned brother Westley's tuition, sheltering newly-divorced sister Winnie, while watching younger siblings (Walker, Waverly, Warner, Wyatt, Wren) still trapped in the wreckage of their ATI upbringing...
Explore how a man taught that love hurts learns to let it heal.
