 A moving story from the internationally bestselling author of
Tuesdays With Morrie that will 'make you smile . . . make you
wistful [and] . . . make you blink back tears of nostalgia' (James
McBride)

As a child, Charley Benetto was told by his father, 'You can be a

mama's boy or a daddy's boy, but you can't be both.' So he chooses
his father, only to see him disappear when Charley is on the verge of
adolescence.

Decades later, Charley is a broken man. His life has been destroyed
by alcohol and regret. He loses his job. He leaves his family. He hits
rock bottom after discovering he won't be invited to his only
daughter's wedding. And he decides to take his own life. Charley
makes a midnight ride to his small hometown: his final journey. But
as he staggers into his old house, he makes an astonishing
discovery. His mother - who died eight years earlier - is there and
welcomes Charley home as if nothing had ever happened.

What follows is the one seemingly ordinary day so many of us yearn

for: a chance to make good with a lost parent, to explain the family
secrets and to seek forgiveness.
