Andy Weinberger presents An Old Man’s Game

Longtime bookseller Andy Weinberger reads and signs copies of his debut novel, An Old Man’s Game. 

Beginning when a controversial celebrity rabbi drops dead over his matzoh ball soup at the famed Canter’s Deli in Los Angeles, An Old Man’s Game follows retired private eye Amos Parisman–a sixtyish, no-nonsense Jewish detective who lives with his addled wife in Park La Brea–who is hired by the temple’s board to make sure everything is kosher. As he looks into what seems to be a simple, tragic accident, the ante is raised when more people start to die or disappear, and Amos uncovers a world of treachery and hurt that shakes a large L.A. Jewish community to its core.

Andy Weinberger is a longtime bookseller who opened Readers’ Books in Sonoma, California, with his wife, Lilla Weinberger, in 1991. Born in New York, he grew up in the Los Angeles area and studied poetry and Chinese history at the University of New Mexico. He lives in Sonoma, where Readers’ Books continues to thrive. This is his first novel.
