As he quietly walked along the pier shortly before sunset, he felt
the evening breeze start to pick up and blow the humid air into the
palm trees. He could hear the rustle of the wind through the live
oaks. His cane steadied him on the uneven planks of the narrow pier
as he approached the solitary figure sitting at the end.
Meet Mr. Hanson, a spry old codger who has a way of following
murder, mayhem, chaos, and affairs of the heart anywhere between
Europe and Shea's Cove on the Indian River. Decked out in his red
baseball cap with the Gothic H, his brown sweater, and scuffed
shoes, Mr. Hanson is ready to travel and enjoy life, but the world
always intrudes.
This eclectic collection of short stories teases and surprises,
but old Mr. Hanson never disappoints. He shuts the doors to his
past and forges ahead to a bright future. He even finds dignity
lying in the middle of St. Mark's Square after a pigeon attack. And
on a snowy Christmas Eve, he helps drive away depression on a tour
bus in Salzburg.
Come meet this tenacious little man and his friends who never
fear what tomorrow might bring!
