But Fred&#39;s luck changes when, in a bizarre case of mistaken identity, he takes the place of grumpy Bernard Greer at the local nursing home. Now he has warm meals in his belly and a roof over his head--as long as his poker face is in better shape than his prostate and that his look-alike never turns up. </p><p>Denise Simms is stuck breathing the same disappointing air again and again.

Wounded by her two-faced husband, she vows never to let a man deceive her again.</p><p>As Fred walks in Bernard&#39;s shoes, he leaves a trail of kindness behind him, fueling Denise&#39;s suspicions about his true identity. When unexpected truths are revealed, Fred and Denise rediscover their sense of purpose and learn how to return a broken life to mint condition. </p><p>Bittersweet and remarkably perceptive, <em> The Borrowed Life of Frederick Fife</em> is a hilarious, feel-good, clever novel about grief, forgiveness, redemption, and finding family.</p>
