Kevin Milton is a man of no compromise. A prosecutor for the city of New York, he rails against all the evils about him; but, more importantly, he rails against all the evils, stupidities, frailties, wrongdoings and shortcomings of mankind. His problem is that he is a man of integrity - which is admirable, of course, but which can also drive people nuts. Indeed, Jessica - his wife - has divorced him. And Cleo - his girlfriend - is threatening to walk out on him. In the background is Harold - a co-worker - who has designs on Cleo. Cleo, however, things Harold is a legume. Cleo tries to get Kevin to take it easy. He rescued her, after all, both literally and spiritually - and she wants him to be happy. But she is running out of energy. And then Jessica pops in for a visit - to discuss a minor operation that their daughter must have - and things heat up. Jessica's life is now one of ease, she says. And it's also boring. Kevin feels the old love - but can't be ungentlemanly to Cleo. And Harold keeps intruding. Things are ultimately resolved - but not without a measure of pain for everyone. \"What will you do with your pain,\" Jessica asks. \"I'm a professional,\" Kevin answers. \"I'll play with it.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernard Mendillo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1542457106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781542457101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.33d","brand":"Bernard Mendillo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48873376317695,"sku":"9781542457101","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/playing-with-pain-bernard-mendillo-9781542457101","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
