I agree with another comment I think it would be better if it was his dad wanting him to live a more meaningful life, or just someone or some organization that goes about secretly helping people and making the world a better place. There could easily have been a second book if it was the latter suggestion, but whatevs. Sad that this was going to make it into my list of very favorite books until that stupid ending.(less)
