The Laughing Bear

This story is about four people, all with very different backgrounds. It is character driven about lost opportunities and how growing older magnifies the urgency of getting it right.

When Daniella Wharton (Danie), a retired movie star, moves into the Laughing Bear Bed and Breakfast, she challenges the 20 year marriage of Darwin and his wife, Rose, a survivor of Hitler's Holocaust. Wally Wharton, Danie's son, a survivor of her career, challenges her love for him and the child given up at birth.

Filled with pathos, surprises and laughter, "The Laughing Bear" is well worth the read.
