Pappy Brown, at age 65, finds himself going to college, a freshman no less. His is a story of life changes, wild times on Greek Row, and late romance, with a dash of Christmas adventure thrown in. For a Christmas gift, Pappy-the last good man-must find the father of a boy whom he has befriended, the father, a Vietnam vet running from his demons. If you've been in the military, Pappy's search for Pooch will have you clutching your heart.
