The Walk A Novel

"My name is Alan Christoffersen. You don't know me. 'Just another book in the library,' my father would say. Unopened and unread. You have no idea how far I've come or what I've lost. More important, you have no idea what I've found." Prologue: What would you do if you lost everything---your job, your home, and the love of your life---all at the same time? When it happens to Seattle ad executive Alan Christoffersen, he's tempted by his darkest thoughts. A bottle of pills in his hand and nothing left to live for, he plans to end his misery. Instead, he decides to take a walk. But not any ordinary walk. Taking with him only the barest of essentials, Al leaves behind all that he's known and heads for the farthest point on his map: Key West, Florida. The people he encounters along the way, and the lessons they share with him, will save his life and inspire yours.
