Lonny is a Lifeling. He has the power to heal any living creature and bring it back from the brink of death. But he pays a price for this gift – by lengthening the creature’s life, he shortens his own. Save a bit of life, give a bit of life. So Lonny has to be careful, has to stay hidden. Because if people knew what he could do, Lonny would be left with no life at all. . .
