For one more day / Albom, Mitch

What if you could spend one more day with a lost loved one? Charley Benetto chose to live with his father when his parents divorced. He returns to his hometown decades later when his life is falling apart and finds his mother, who died eight years earlier, still living there.

After years of drinking, being rejected by his wife and daughter, and a suicide attempt, ex-baseball star Charley Benetto returns to his childhood home where he encounters the ghost of his mother, who tells him family secrets and guides him in making his life better.
