The Farewell Tour

By Karen S. Bennett

The Farewell TourIn the autumn of 1998, Bev Schuler's personal PIN, 2598, suddenly starts showing up with urgency on her bills and personal accounts, but the wake-up call came when her PIN was the number that won her close to three thousand M&Ms in her granddaughter's scout's fundraiser. "It is as if the numbers are telling me something." Bev contemplates her life, and realizes she has completed all of the average mile markers and concludes the numbers 2, 5, 9, 8 are an upcoming date, and the only thing left to do is to die. She's a healthy fifty-seven-year-old widow, and doubts she would suddenly die on a date's command, but maybe an accident awaits. Despite her fears she is powerless to change the numbers and their prodding. She bravely concludes she'll go out with a bang in three months' time. No more diets and watching the grass grow in her little, pokey, hometown. She'll give them an obituary to remember. Not a romance, travelogue, nor a tragedy, the novel manages a wedding on the other side of the world following a tragic event. No numerology nor magical realism, the story is strewn with recurring lucky digits which force our heroine to decisions which transform her life in often comical events in this high spirited frolic with a woman of worth. "The Farewell Tour" is the perfect, entertaining read for a flight or on the beach. Enjoy.
