Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Ray thought retirement would feel like freedom.Eleven days in, it feels more like disappearing.At fifty-three, divorced, his children nearly grown and his working life suddenly behind him, Ray has enough money to survive-but no idea what he is supposed to do with the rest of his life.Then he remembers Tom, a former coworker who actually did what everyone else only talked about: sold nearly everything and left America behind.One Facebook message later, Ray does the same.He arrives in a small coastal town in Thailand expecting an old friend. Instead, he finds Daisy, her young son Tommy, May, and a little bar that slowly gives him something retirement never did: a reason to get up in the morning.As months pass, Ray becomes part of an unlikely family and begins building a life he never expected to have. But when that fragile balance begins to change, he must decide whether belonging means holding on-or knowing when to let someone else move forward.Second Breath is a compact story about retirement, found family, starting over, and discovering that sometimes the life you were trying to escape is not nearly as important as the one waiting for you somewhere else.
