The reluctant fortune teller / Keziah Frost.
Norbert Zelenka has always lived life on the sidelines. It's how at seventy-three years old he finds himself broke and alone. But when Carlotta's Club--three strong-willed seniors with a flair for drama--decide to make Norbert their latest project, he reluctantly agrees to their scheme.
Norbert Zelenka has always lived life on the sidelines. It's why at seventy-three years old he's broke and alone except for the company of a Chihuahua. But when 'Carlotta's Club' - three strong-willed seniors with plenty of time on their hands- decided to make Norbert their latest project, he reluctantly agrees with their scheme: establishing himself as the town's fortune-teller. Soon his life begins changing in unexpected ways. It turns out that years of observing other people make Norbert an excellent card reader. As Norbert's lonesome world expands with new friendships and a newfound self-confidence, he finally find himself in a place where he belongs. But disaster looms on the horizon. When a troubled young woman goes missing after a bad reading, Norbert must find a strength beyond the cards to bring her home safely. - back of book
