Can an email address scribbled on €20 change a life? Yes!

From the Back Cover

What would you do if you're given a €20 note in Greece with an email address scribbled on it:

1. Spend it?

2. Slip the suspect counterfeit bill into an enemy’s birthday card?

3. Send an email, hoping it will lead to you finding everlasting love?

Brad, a hopeless romantic, chose the latter.

Two years later, his love life remains a disaster and his career is misfiring. As he’s about to walk Spain’s fabled Camino de Santiago to ponder some profound life changes, Brad receives a reply.

Incredibly, it’s from a woman who lives on the pilgrimage path, far away from where the money first crossed his palm. She invites him to sleep… ‘on her house.’

Hiking 900km on the Road to Santiago to a blind date with the mystery €20 woman, Brad has the adventure of a lifetime.

His heart is warmed by fellow pilgrims and natives who give him more reason than ever to believe in the kindness of the human spirit; he befriends a hilarious Hungarian who speaks English in song titles and has his raison d’être revealed to him by a barefoot Mayan mystic.

Will he meet his happily-ever-after along the way too? Mainstream Media Praise: "An inspiring, touching, heartfelt and funny memoir that made me howl with laughter throughout. A wonderful read."—Kevin Hand, BBC London
