Lost, and Found

By: William D. Chalmers

Narratives help us make sense of our world. They establish our emotional foundation and shape our worldview. Lost, orphaned and alone, caught in the uncertainties of manhood, love and self-discovery, Peter Conner undertakes an extraordinary journey from barren, cold Minnesota to vibrant, sultry Singapore. By hook and by crook, from the halls of academia to the screening rooms of Hollywood. In between, Peter is surrounded by the women he loves, African aid workers and economic hitmen, Asian pirates and detectives, and European diplomats and spies. And ultimately, by agents, producers, and unabashed starlets in L.A. This sprawling novel unites Peter's reality and wholly fictionalized versions of it: Equal parts personal odyssey, geo-political thriller, morality play, and Hollywood fantasy. Peter Connor survives lost love, Cold War intrigue, globalization's discontent, and 9/11's turmoil...and lives to tell about it. Unmoored for decades, Peter somehow thrives in a messy, chaotic world of change, floating headlong into the rushing torrents of history, to which he is, all at once, Lost, and Found.
