Detective Daniel Kane is the self-proclaimed king of his castle, his
California beachfront home, and the iron fisted ruler of his subjects --
his wife, Catheryn, and his four children: Tommy, Travis, Allison, and
Nate. Hardened by years of law enforcement, he is determined to prepare
his children to face a harsh and violent world. With a relentless will
for perfection and scorn for anything less, Kane teaches them his rules
for success and provides a model for the essentials of survival:
strength, bravery, ambition, stoicism, and vengeance. He shows them
everything -- everything but what is in his heart.
Over the
course of a single shattering summer, each of Kane's children will be
forced to pay the price his standards demand, but the brunt of Kane's
fierce and exacting love will fall on Travis. Lacking the physical
prowess of his older brother Tommy, Travis confounds his father with
artistic "softness" and musical gifts. Yet in a devastating moment that
will change all the Kanes forever, it is Travis alone who will find the
courage to defy his father and, ultimately, to redeem him.
Set
against the sweeping backdrop of the California coast, "A Song for the
Asking" tells the story of a family not unlike your own . . .
