Ursula's Yahrtzeit Candle - Paperback

by Steven R. Berger (Author)

FINALIST, BEST ADULT FICTION AWARD by COLORADO AUTHORS' LEAGUE (Colorado's oldest organization for professional, published writers).
The story of Ursula Frank, an 87-year-old woman, who has lived and seen it all from Nazi-scorched Europe to pre-Castro Cuba, was looking for a clever exit from her mortal coil by going into East L.A. at night looking for trouble. Unintentionally she interrupts the gang initiation of Reuben Montanez, a 17-year-old good guy who was simply hoping for a better life than his honest hard-working (deceased) brother. Little does Reuben know that Ursula just might have the answer to his hopes of a better life, if only she can share it with him before it is too late--for either of them.
