With all his family and friends gone, 100-year-old Murray McBride is looking for a reason to live.

Together, they race against the limited time each has left, ticking off wishes one by one. But when tragedy strikes, their worlds are turned upside-down, and an unexpected gift is the only thing that can make Jason's final wish come true.

Had high hopes given first book in series but just felt so creeped out by the path taken my main character. Uncomfortable read and not in a good way.
