about this book: Forced to choose between cultivating a satisfying life for himself and rescuing his dysfunctional family members from their certain demise causes Markus to question the importance of family. Does he save his relatives from their ill-fated lives, or save himself from entering into a life of self-sacrifice and missed opportunities? Painful soul-searching and late-night talks with the captivating tenant downstairs guide him to an unexpected decision and discovery of his true purpose in life.
A Note From the Author: I got a late start in life writing novels--my first one was published at the tender age of 62. "Living with Markus" is my 5th one. I have since written two more, and I hope to keep writing for a long time. After living in a downtown Chicago high-rise for nearly 30 years, I moved to a far northern suburb where I currently live on a small, tranquil lake--a great setting for relaxing, enjoying wildlife, and writing.
