CAN A DAUGHTER SAVE HER FATHER—AND SAVE THE DAY? Thomas “Big Mac” MacDonald lost everything in the divorce—his home, his National Football League pension, and his dignity—everything but his prized, classic, VW van. It would be enough to drive anyone to drink, but that’s only the half of it. The “residents” of the beach park where Thomas and dozens of other homeless San Diegans sleep in their cars are strangely disappearing at a rapid rate. With the help of his twelve-year-old daughter, Big Mac begins rebuilding his life and clearing his name. But when the two get sucked into solving the mystery surrounding the park, Thomas realizes he has a lot to lose—but he puts it all on the line to do the right thing. If he succeeds, he’s a hero. If he fails, he’s a footnote—another former football player who died before his time.

Before becoming the best-selling author of 20 books, Lee Silber lived an interesting life. He was a surf shop owner, pen salesman, graphic artist, corporate trainer, keynote speaker, and marketing consultant. What he had was success in a number of areas; what he lacked, gratefully, was ever hitting rock bottom. So, to write The Homeless Hero, Silber knew he needed to discover what it was truly like to live on the streets—and that he did. It was both terrifying and enlightening at the same time. He survived, however, and currently lives comfortably with his wife and two young sons in Mission Beach, California.
