About the Book

The Trouble with Mr. Adams is a monster story about love's poisoned arrow. On the night volleyball coach Gary Adams leaves his wife, allegations of sexual misconduct surface regarding his sixteen-year old student. Gary defends his innocence - to his slighted wife, his reluctant union lawyer, and finally to the hesitant victim herself: his star volleyball player. But as the details of their relationship are revealed, troubling ambiguities become dangerous grey areas and Gary is forced to make an impossible choice. Finally, a changed, punished man, he makes one last bid to redeem himself. Grappling with such themes as abuse of power, intergenerational love, and the stagnation of marriage, The Trouble with Mr. Adams exposes the crippling disaster of the male mid-life crisis.

About the Author :
Gord Rand is primarily an actor, and has performed on stages around the world, from San Francisco to Rwanda, including nine seasons at the Shaw Festival. Most recently, he played the title role in Oedipus Rex at the Stratford Festival, and Hamlet for Necessary Angel at the Worldstage. He won a Dora Mavor Moore Award for his portrayal of a naked Ukrainian plutonium dealer in Michael Healey's The Innocent Eye Test. He also appeared in Goodness (Volcano), The Test (The Company), The Philanderer (Shaw Festival), and Abyss (Tarragon). Recent screen appearances include: Abel in CBC's Pure, Detective Duko in Orphan Black (CSA Nomination, ACTRA Award nomination), and RSM Kelly in the hit ABC series Combat Hospital. Gord is also an award-winning filmmaker and playwright, recently completing his first feature documentary Goodness in Rwanda, and has garnered praise for his plays Orgy in the Lighthouse, Pond Life, and The Trial of Thumbelina. He is busy making his next feature film - based on his hit play Pond Life - and writing his next play The Pool Boys with Storefront Theatre. He's lucky: he lives in downtown Toronto, grows his own hot peppers, has a lovely wife, two beautiful boys, and a very large dog.
