It started with the first pint and ended with the last. What happened in between was life. Pete Fisher, quintessential anti-hero, divorced British expat whose predilections involve booze and women, not necessarily in that order, lives out his life on the shores of Lake Huron with three beloved but unruly Rottweilers.He is, inexplicably to him, entangled in a love triangle between a woman he wants and one he no longer does. His carefully cultivated complacency is shaken to the core when the youngest of his four children is killed on a motorbike Pete bought him. This and other mental and physical challenges beset him. It could be argued that all of it was the price of a pint.
