    Extra-ordinary Adventure
    Edsel Bronfman is different and I didn't quite believe he could be real for awhile. The result of a one night stand and raised by a single mother who is now slipping into dementia, he finds himself at 34, alone and leading a routine life. One phone call changes that. He wins an all expense paid trip to Florida for a time share presentation. Two catches shape the story. He must have a companion and there is a time limit. Then crazy things begin to happen and Bronfman starts to discover himself. This is a coming of age story it can happen anytime in your life. I found the book slow going for the first half of the book and then I couldn't wait to see how it all turned out.
