    About this ebook

    Imagine a life so painfully ordinary that monotony isn’t just routine; it deepens with each passing day.

    That’s the world our protagonist knows until they meet an enigmatic stranger. This individual doesn’t just break the monotony – they shatter it, revealing hidden truths about our hero’s heritage and inner self. But once the veil is lifted and mysteries unravel, can life ever revert to its previous state of blandness? Or is this cycle of revelation and discovery fated to repeat – over and over again?

      It’s soothing when the newly dead are way older than I am. This guy was 95. His picture—middle-aged, archaic glasses—freezes him somewhere around 1970. But even when they are my age and live in my town and share so many of my habits and interests tha
