Blurb for Mr. Wizard from Michael Curtis at The Atlantic

Jeff Wallach’s novel is about two brothers on a search for their biological father after the unexpected death of their globe-trotting and colorful mother invites such an investigation. They find answers on an Irish golf course and in a familiar Long Island neighborhood. The writing is knowing and engaging, wise about its cultural orientations, and driven to discoveries both reassuring and life-enhancing.
