In the stories in Winning Chance, Katherine Koller explores second chances, how we find them, and how we find the courage to take them.
Whether they are contractors running into an ex while on the job, a busy mother pursuing community theatre, or a family building an illegal ice rink after an environmental collapse, Koller’s characters are empathetic portraits of characters searching to connect.
