You’ve been told that it’s rude to eavesdrop, but this book bids you lean into a captivating conversation between two older men, one a founding father of pharmaceutical medicine, the other a former architect and church minister. Following a chance meeting, they agree to a pilgrimage...of sorts. After five years, they hadn’t travelled far, and yet searched the cosmos to encounter its big questions of life, death, and the love of God - with wormholes, parallel universes, and adventures on the way.Dr Richard knew the life of village church, choirboy, and good living, but had little experience of intimate friendship with God. His younger friend knew only atheism and colourful living, until being surprised by the joy of welcome from his heavenly Father. Dr Richard was a big man with size 17 shoes and living on borrowed time. Was the author’s own call to become a fisher of men going to see him safely to the net?  'Knowing Bob over the years, I feel privileged to read of his touching relationship with Dr Richard. Their wonderful journey of exploration helped restore my Christian faith and I believe it will encourage others to draw closer to God.' David Ambrose. A founder member of Fleetwood Mac and former executive at EMI and MCA/Universal Records. David is the author of ’How to be a Rock Star’.'A remarkable book of friendship and ruthless honesty as two men share their lives, their questions and their hearts. It’s also about life and death, and if you let it, it will point you to grace. And grace, as you will discover, is the only thing you need.' Rev David Cooke. Vicar, Holy Trinity Barnes, London.'Brilliant - an inspiring five-year dialogue, sharing the joys and sorrows of life’s belief and faith.' Andrew Jennings OBE.  Formerly CEO of many of the world’s retail brands, Andrew is a global retail advisor and author of ’Almost is not good enough’.
