When the DNAMIX machine appears in the grocery store of Deerfield, Louisiana, it resembles a plain photo booth. But with just a quick swab of your cheek and two dollars, the device claims to use the science of DNA to tell you your life's potential. With enough credibility to make the townspeople curious, soon the former teachers, nurses, and shopkeepers of Deerfield are abruptly changing course to pursue their destinies as magicians, cowboys, and athletes. Douglas Hubbard and his wife, Cherilyn, both believed they were perfectly happy until they realized they could dream for more. Is it possible to stay true to oneself while honoring the bonds of marriage, friendship, and community? -- adapted from jacket
