Every so often a novel comes along that is so true to life its impact is felt long after the last page is turned. "Only Son" is such a book. . . Divorced and alone, Carl Jorgenson has one dream; to have a son and give him the life and love he never had. His dream becomes a reality the day Amy McMurray leaves her son alone for one brief, unforgivable moment. In that split second, all their lives change forever. So begins the remarkable story of a mother's search for the child she has lost but will never abandon. . .of a man desperately holding on to the single thread of hope in his life. . .and of a young boy, a son to both, a stranger to himself, who teaches each of them about love, loss and forgiveness. Illuminated by a rare compassion, "Only Son" is a deeply felt, powerfully realized novel about the search for love and a place to belong. It is a novel about fate, the irreversible choices we make, and the forces we cannot control. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Carl Jorgenson is, to all appearances, an exemplary father. His son, Sam, is bright, considerate, and loving. But Carl hides a dark secret. And a chance meeting will reveal the devastating truth.
Interesting reveals and backstories in this multi-layered tale may leave readers rooting for the kidnapper even though nothing can truly justify his actions. With believable, sensitive characters and deft handling of events, readers will find much to ponder in this well-written narrative.
