Distraught, guilt-stricken and seeking redemption, George buys a broken-down mansion in Looking glass, Oregon, paints it fire-engine red, and begins searching for other old folks to share it with him. Because George has made a new promise that will alter the course of the rest of his life. And, with the help of a miraculous old woman named Grace, he assembles a ragtag bunch of aging strangers, determined to make their last days on earth--and his own--an adventure.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A lovingly told story of aging...an insightful story about reconciliation--finding peace with our mistakes and each other. And it's apoignant story about dying with dignity--or at least flair...[Kleiner] has captured the essence of aging in these endearing, cantankerous, and very human characters."-- "Chicago Tribune"<br>
