Resumen del Editor

In his award-winning debut novel, James J. Kaufman delivers a gripping and unforgettable story of two strong men from separate worlds - one touched by tragedy, the other by greed - brought together with unexpected results. In chronicling how their lives and those they touch are dramatically changed by their encounter, Kaufman reveals the power of relationships, the nature of love, and ultimately the meaning of life.

"Do what the other fella can't. Be what the other fella ain't. And then help the other fella."

Joe Hart has never let go of his uncle's words. An orphan from the unspoiled Adirondack Mountains, Joe leaves his humble beginnings and goes on to distinguish himself, first as a navy submarine commander, then as an attorney unequaled in his field. But Joe's world crashes with an unexpected tragedy.

A child of wealth and privilege from New York's Upper East Side, Preston Wilson harbors a fear of financial failure. When that fear threatens to become reality, Preston tracks down the one attorney who might be able to save him. Joe reluctantly decides to help - but only after extracting a promise that Preston will fulfill an unspecified condition when called upon. Preston, desperate, agrees.

Too soon, Joe calls in his unconventional IOU. The self-absorbed Preston balks when Joe tells him he must meet, earn the trust of, and care for several people. Each of Joe's collectibles - none of whom Preston would ever want to know - has a serious personal challenge. Can Preston find the integrity to make good on his promise to Joe? Does he have a choice?

Not what I expected.

I bought this book thinking it would have all the murder and mayhem I so enjoy. It didn't, it was a rollercoaster of emotion. One of the best books I've listened to. I don't have the words to express how this book moved me.

Very "Hallmark"

Simple characters, simple, heartwarming story. Enjoyable if you're looking for an easy listening escape that requires nothing from the reader.

Slow start, but it began to engage me and then totally hooked me.

A very caring story of very real people who are each enhanced by helping the other, guided by a very special hand and heart.

Not sappy, but I still cry

Well worth the money and time to spend on this book! Never would've guessed but totally surprising ending. Very good.

A good read

I like the main character Joe, well. He was empathetic and compassionate with other people. Demonstranter a great understanding of the fate of other unfortunate people and actively participated in their lives. In my ideal world, I wish he had the same respect for animals, because he hunted and fished. I thought it was boring to hear about the banking business chapters because I'm not interrested in banking. Not many novels have made my tears flow, but the last chapter struck me in the middle of my heart, and I was completely put out of emotion. A fine novel, apart from the banking business chapters. Narration was excellent.

Should be a Mitch Albom book

Incredibly nice, highly skilled lawyer guy makes loyal but flawed friends that he helps. Has a big case to handle. Does a great job. Everybody loves him. Meh.

I love this narrator.
