"The author of the scariest movie ever made is also an endearing writer and laugh-out-loud hilarious. This book is as entertaining as it is profound.-- ""Dinesh D'Souza, author of Life After Death: The Evidence"" ""I couldn't put it down. I read it in one sitting. Truly, a wonderful book. Much more than an eloquent and oftentimes very funny autobiography, Finding Peter is also a very moving expression of the loss of loved ones. A must-read for all who want to believe that Providence works miracles in our lives, often inexplicably. I loved it."" -- ""Stacy Keach, actor and narrator"" ""The author of the scariest movie ever made is also an endearing writer and laugh-out-loud hilarious.
