In this "smart and clever" suspenseful story, a stay-at-home father with something to prove finds a wealthy Wall Street investor's body washed up on the shore--and decides to take the investigation into his own hands (Michael Connelly).
Peter Greene spends his days taking care of his toddler, staying on the right side of The Moms in his local beach town, and hanging out with his surf buddy, Frank. Isolated from his former life in finance and frustrated by his current "out of work" existence, he worries that if he sits around the house for much longer, his workaholic wife might start to lose patience with him. He has few escapes aside from surfing and the love he has for his son. When the body of wealthy Wall Street investor Robert Townsend washes up on shore one morning and is ruled as an accidental drowning, it makes no sense to Pete. But when he takes his concerns to the police, they ignore him--so he decides to investigate on his own. Sustained only by the unquestioning devotion of his three-year-old sidekick, Pete starts looking into Townsend's eccentric relatives and employer, the ruthless and secretive private equity firm GDR. But has Pete deluded himself with this misguided quest for redemption? Or has he uncovered something sinister enough to risk his life, and even his family? A Rough Way to Go is a raw, irreverent story that plumbs the depths of masculinity, unemployment, fatherhood, marriage, and modern capitalism--and the struggle to live a purposeful life.Back Jacket
