Life After Death - Brian O'Donnell

Raymond has just lost his immediate family in a horrific road smash. Once he has attended to the funerals (3) he is forced from his home and needs to find somewhere to live. Now an orphan, without family support, except for a crippled Grandmother, a twelve-year-old boy has to find a new home and a college to attend. He has passed his Eleven-Plus exams and ready for Grammar school. His Grandmother squeezes him into her council flat until a new opportunity occurs. He is offered a new home with large gardens and greenhouse close to a suitable college. After a number of years with hard labour he manages to put his life together with the help of his patron. Only long hours of work and study will get him through this scenario. His possible love-life has to be put on hold as he builds up a very lucrative business. His biggest challenges are with official (and officious) government officers and officials who try to take him down and finally even steal his properties and land holdings, to build a new by-pass road. He was cheated by his sweetheart and left alone again. Can Raymond rebuild his life, again.
