Thirty-five-year-old Richie Lopez is at the end of his rope. His marriage is over, he’s barred from seeing his son, he is unfulfilled at a dead-end-job, and he is drinking to excess. But all of that is about to change when he meets Conrad Richards, a mysterious man that seems to have all the answers to the world’s most difficult questions—and a ghostly way of disappearing and appearing in other places at will. Although Richie suspects something very unusual, he admires his new friend so much that he keeps his thoughts to himself. Still, he cannot help but wonder if Conrad is just a brilliant old man or if he is an angel, how he seems to know him inside and out, and why he has chosen him to fulfill his lifelong dream of writing a book about life’s purpose. As Conrad mentors Richie, he shares his personal reflections and secrets to success. But will he live long enough for Richie to learn all there is, and will Richie ever discover whether Conrad is human or something more spiritual? In this heartwarming story, an older man appears in a troubled young man’s life to share his wisdom and ask him to fulfill his long-held dream of writing a book.
