Jack Mercer thought the hardest part of divorce would be losing his marriage. He was wrong.
After nearly eighteen years together, two children, a military career, and a life built from almost nothing, Jack finds himself confronting betrayal, lawyers, court filings, financial battles, parenting disputes, and a legal system he barely understands.
Then his military career ends too.
Suddenly, two identities that have defined almost his entire adult life, husband and soldier, are gone.
The one thing he refuses to lose is father.
With no law degree, five binders of exhibits, and an unhealthy willingness to read every damn document put in front of him, Jack teaches himself how to survive a contested divorce that becomes more absurd with every turn.
Darkly funny, painfully honest, and unapologetically profane, Court-Ordered Coin Flip is a story about betrayal, fatherhood, friendship, identity, and the dangerous belief that every problem can be solved if you just fight hard enough.
Because eventually, there are some things you can't argue, document, or control.
Sometimes you just have to call it in the air.
