The Dolphin Boy

With Dolphin Boy, Stephen Anthony Edell brings us the story of a disfigured young boy and the portentous New York City lawyer, David Saunders, who determines that fate has elected him to save the boy from exploitation.

Desperately seeking to exorcise the demons of his past, David is searching for new meaning in his life. The money and success that being a ruthless attorney has brought him did not come in a pretty little package of happiness. Along with his longtime tireless pursuit of professional gain, David is fighting cancer. Despite his grueling treatments, he manages to keep his clout with the firm, leading a life tainted by a nagging feeling of disillusionment and unfulfillment.

As his path crosses with “The Dolphin Boy,” a limbless, pathetic young boy, David is disturbed by the plight of the youngster. But in the eyes of the boy, he finds the inspiration he was so desperately seeking, thus vowing to rescue him, and ultimately changing his own life.
