When a patch of black ice causes the death of a 49-year-old woman
in Evanston, Illinois, three strangers are thrust into a journey of
personal exploration as they cope with a clash between their
existing personal turmoil and the trauma of fatality. Charity Jones
is a high-powered attorney who must grapple with feeling like the
"Token Black" lawyer in her criminal law firm. She hopes work will
shield her from having to deal with her racial identity struggles.
Marvin Cohen is a devout Jewish grandfather who begins to question
his faith because of complicated family circumstances. He seeks to
retain the status quo as it becomes threatened. Meanwhile, Chad
Humes' divorcing parents force him to choose between them. He must
decide whether he wants to stay in Portland, Oregon with his high
school friends or move away from the place where he grew up.
Sheridan Road is told by three alternating first person accounts
that explore the complex dynamics of race, religion, family, and
class. Each account begins before the accident and follows the
characters through their journey beyond the accident.
