Becoming Pablo

When a troubled and mysterious woman turns up at Paul Hutchings' Baja hotel, his thoughts are sent back to a time when his own life lay in shambles. As he observes Sandra's struggle to find her way through an unnamed grief, he revisits the losses that threatened to break him.

Seven years earlier, after losing a career-changing acting role, the love of his life, and in middle age, his hair, Paul was set adrift until an old friend extended a lifeline, and Paul embarked on a journey which dramatically altered the course of his life. As he left his home in the UK and travelled to Australia, the United States, to Canada, and finally to Mexico, Paul's journey evolved from running to seeking.

A prequel to the women's fiction/romance novel House of the Blue Sea, Becoming Pablo is a story of finding one's true self amid the rubble of a life.
