The master of happy endings : a novel

Summary: Still mourning the death of his beloved wife, a 77-year-old retired teacher, now living alone on a small island off the coast of B.C. decides to put himself up for adoption. He advertises in the local newspaper and suggests a tutoring position for a young actor in exchange for his room and board. This leads to a whirlwind adventure in Malibu, Hollywood, and the world of film-making. The experience forces him to deal with the ghost of his aspiring actor-father and his first love, a successful film actress still living in L.A.
