A funny, heartbreaking story about life and loss, and
making every second count. Eric's best friend, Finn Jones, was the
world's biggest prankster. Now Eric can't believe Finn's not here
anymore. ...Or is he? Eric seems to be getting messages from beyond
the grave, and as he follows Finn's wild, cryptic instructions, his
hope grows that he'll find Finn laughing at the end. The journey
also brings memories - and a truth that seems impossible to accept.
