From the publisher

WINNER OF THE ONE CITY, ONE BOOK AWARD

Featured in New York Post and People Magazine

On the cusp of middle age, a newlywed journalist discovers and finishes the bucket list of her late free-spirited father.

Fifty-four adventures in six years. That's what thirty-eight-year-old journalist Laura Carney embarked on when she discovered her late father Mick's bucket list.

Killed in a car crash when Laura was twenty-five, Mick seemed lost forever. My Father's List is the story of how one woman--with the help of family, friends, and even strangers--found the courage to go after her own dreams after realizing those of a beloved yet mysterious man. This is a story about secrets--and the freedom we feel when we learn to trust again: in life, in love, and in a father's lessons on how to fully live.
