Résumé

Ancient Chinese wisdom secretly passed through handwritten fortunes guides the lives of two men from different cultures faced with similar problems. Each overcomes adversity through personal journeys of change. Michael Hamilton, an American stranger, is guided by aged scholar, Chow Lee Tong, who clandestinely guides him each time he eats at Good Fortune restaurant whenever he faces a new crisis. Tong overhears Michael's conversation, then composes a visionary fortune he slips inside a fortune cookie.
The message is vague and must be unraveled to be understood. The other man, Wu, is Tong's stubborn son who refuses to listen to his father's sage advice. Their shared lesson is that in order to achieve happiness in life, one must often look beyond the obvious and believe in the messages of dreams, symbols, synchronicity, and the teachings of a wise scholar. As the mirrored images of the Yin/Yang symbol are identical yet reversed, good fortune awaits both men when they realize joy is achieved by viewing what makes them happy from a changed perspective.
Chinese culture and customs add dimension to this unusual story.

Biographie de Leslie Bratspis

Award-winning author, Leslie Bratspis, grew up in Hollywood and Palm Springs, CA with her teacher mother, and novelist/screenwriter father, Irving Shulman. The themes in her books cover social topics she finds important. Her first four novels include uplifting messages pertaining to life lessons and personal growth. Her fifth book is a dark, sexy, psychological thriller. Leslie learned early that writing fiction requires more than being creative.
It also involves doing extensive research. Before the release of GOOD FORTUNE, she had the manuscript fact-checked by the Chinese Historical Society in San Francisco, CA. Aside from reading and writing, Leslie enjoys time with her husband and two rescued golden retrievers. She volunteers for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue and is a member of Red Sands Writers Circle. She enjoys sketching and painting, listening to blues and jazz, watching noir movies, and mindfulness meditation.
