Description

Powered by pitch-perfect dialogue, lovable characters, and surprising optimism, Who Are You, Calvin Bledsoe? is a modern-day take on Graham Greene's classic Travels with My Aunt, a novel about grabbing life, and holding on--wherever it may take you.-- Calvin Bledsoe's mother, a theologian and bestselling author, dies in a fiery explosion. Forty-nine-year-old Calvin's uninspired life is upended... and then a stranger shows up at the funeral, claiming to be his aunt Beatrice. She insists that Calvin accompany her on a trip to Europe, immediately. It quickly becomes apparent that his aunt's clandestine behavior is leading him into danger, involving antiquities thieves, secret agents, religious fanatics, and an ex-wife who is stalking him. Now Calvin has to figure out why he has been kidnapped, why his aunt disappeared, and who the hell burned down his house. -- adapted from jacket
