Wendell Grouse, a lonely Texas widower, has an unusual problem: he involuntarily astral projects, leaving his body to float above his own life. After visiting his younger self and witnessing a question he couldn't answer forty years ago, Wendell realizes he's been watching from the sidelines. With help from his gloriously eccentric neighbor Larry—a man with forty-seven concrete gnomes and a heart of gold—Wendell learns that connection matters more than distance. A humorous, heartfelt story about second chances, found family, and discovering that sometimes the farthest journey is the one back to yourself.
