This was a good read. This man named Tyler Hawthorne has a gift that he doesn't want anymore. He's been alive for over 200 years. He can't die. He also receives the messages of the nearly dead at their bedsides. One of these messages warns him that he may soon get his wish. Around this same time, Amanda Clarke is staying by the side of her friend Ron who is soon to die, but Ron's hopes are levitated when Tyler says he isn't going to die. Amanda thinks he is likely a con artist, but soon she sees him for what he is. A great story.
