About the book: Nothing is ever easy! Something always goes wrong!

We can hear Raymond Rosemont muttering such thoughts as the unassuming, socially awkward, middle-aged, loner bumbles his way through one absurd episode after another. While planning the funeral arrangements for his beloved mother, Raymond must interact with his two sisters; one, a hard charging bank executive, who scares Raymond, the other, a Hollywood scriptwriter more interested in having a good time than mourning their mother’s death.

From being locked out of his apartment in a thunderstorm – clad only in his underwear, learning about the effects of drinking too much alcohol, being wrongfully accused of attempted suicide, and finally gaining the interest of a beautiful lady; Raymond manages to muddle through it all. Staying true to himself, discovering real friendship and much more in this darkly humorous tale.
