A father and a son are seeing each other for the first time in years. The father has a story to share before its too late. He tells his son about a courageous little girl lying in a hospital bed a few miles away. Shes a smart kid--smart enough to know that she wont beat cancer by drawing with crayons all day but it seems to make the adults happy so she keeps doing it. As he talks about this plucky little girl the father also reveals more about himself: his triumphs in business his failures as a parent his past regrets his hopes for the future. Now on a cold winters night the father has been given an unexpected chance to do something remarkable that could change the destiny of a little girl he hardly knows. But before he can make the deal of a lifetime he must find out what his own life has actually been worth and only his son can reveal that answer. With humor and compassion Fredrik Backmans The Deal of a Lifetime reminds us that life is a fleeting gift and our legacy rests in how we share that gift with others.
