A ​férfi nem érdemelte meg a második esélyt. De szüksége volt rá… Úgy tűnt, Emily és a férje, Sandy Portman boldogan élik kényelmes, bár elfoglalt életüket New York egyik leghíresebb és legpatinásabb épületében, a Dakota-házban. Ám egy este, úton Emilyért, Sandy életét veszti egy balesetben. Alig zajlik le a temetés, amikor Emilynek már azzal kell szembesülnie, hogy az anyósa jóvoltából a kilakoltatás szélén áll. Az otthona elvesztésének lehetőségénél azonban még jobban letaglózza az a felismerés, hogy a házassága hazugságokra épült. Hirtelen arra kényszerül, hogy kiderítse, valójában ki is volt a férje… miközben szokatlan módon úgy érzi, mintha Sandy mégsem hagyta volna teljesen magára. Mérges, megbántott, és a lelkiállapotának az sem használ, hogy ígéretes könyvszerkesztői karrierje is kettétörni látszik. Vigaszra egy kóbor kutyában lel, s bár Einstein szépségversenyen biztosan nem indulhatna, szemmel látható eltökéltséggel igyekszik terelgetni új gazdáját a mindennapokban. De vajon mi van e mögött a különös szándék mögött? Az, hogy Emily álljon talpra és nézzen szembe a múltjával? És még azután is tud a kutyus segíteni neki abban, hogy megtalálja a továbbvezető utat, amikor feltűnik egy új férfi a láthatáron?
