The Last Thing You See Before You Die

Richard Williams and Robert Jones are in the twilight of their lives and they are both obsessed with dying. They are both also starkly aware, despite never meeting each other, that they havent done anything to be remembered by. Very different men, they have however something in common: they have been in contact with the enigmatic Thaddeus who leaves a trail of death behind him wherever he goes. Somehow they have survived. Their paths cross coincidentally and, having shared their mutual suspicions and misgivings about Thaddeus, they agree to help each other discover the secrets of this mysterious being. A rather profound philosophical disquisition on death, ageing, memory and transience.
