Description

Guy Pickering has the biggest problem of his life. Dorothy, the only woman he's ever loved, suffers with pain and dementia and has only weeks to live. Years ago, they made a pact. Whomever is suffering, the other will help in ending the pain. He knows what he has to do and he just can't bring himself to do it. With love and honor in heart and a dread of loneliness, he decides to go with her into the afterlife. But Guy soon finds that he is not good at this sort of thing. A rebellious teenage grandson shows up unexpectedly, a fame-hungry reporter chases them and Guy's most private event spirals out of control in front of an ever widening audience. Much to Guy's frustration, Life keeps getting in the way of Death. The Flight of the Pickerings is a love story that wrestles with end of life issues and our right for self-determination. Filled with tender moments and comic twists, this book engages the reader in one family's final journey, a voyage all of us will take, sooner or later.
