Product Description
Luke Millward is a man who does not know he is lost. His girlfriend loves him; his career is going well; and every night he falls asleep knowing that his life is good and meaningful. Only when the past reveals its twisted smile in a phone call and the disconnected voice asks him to come find his father in post-Katrina New Orleans is Luke compelled to find out what kind of man he truly is. Recovering Charles is for every family who’s had its share of tough times, for anyone who regrets the things you’ve never said, for everyone who needs to know their life has a second verse.

My Review: This book is a quick and interesting read.  The setting Hurricane Katrina has been done a few times before, yet there are many stories to be told there.  This book tells the story of a young man discovering himself by learning about his family, especially his father, who he had actually given up on.  He sees his father through the eyes of friends who loved him as they searched for him.  The main character, Luke, is very likeable even though he seems somewhat confused.  It all works out in the end and is quite satisfying.  This book can be another great summer read – maybe even a beach read!
