He asks everyone for help as he tries to figure out the arcane clue to where they are. Peter Rogers, recreation director for the assisted-living center, wants to help Alf, but other residents also want his attention, his wedding to Jenny is fast approaching, and his elderly neighbor, Dolores, keeps showing up in his kitchen at awkward times. Peter, a former Navy corpsman, is on top of it all. But then there's a fire, a murder, an unhappy fianc e, and a masked man with a gun looking for Alf's treasure. What else could go wrong? Lots. "I giggled, then laughed so hard I cried. I gasped, then smiled. I was reminded of the importance of family and community - this book will do the same for you." Anne F.
