He had settled for the cosy repetitiveness of his underachieving life. And then his best friend involves him in an unusual quest and everything he knows is blown apart.

Is that just wishful thinking? Who, and more importantly what, is his new friend? And why does a famous writer's dead wife constantly harass him?
