Johnson, who died of cancer in July 2017 at age 78, had been working on a story with some of the same characters. He had nearly finished the book and was discussing it with his literary representative, Robert Barnett, and with Portfolio President Adrian Zackheim.“I knew that Spencer was not well when we had our last editorial conversation about the book, but I wasn’t aware of the gravity of his illness,” Zackheim said in a statement. “I was shocked when I learned that he had died just a few days after we talked about revisions to the manuscript. Fortunately, Spencer bequeathed a wonderful book to us.”Johnson’s other books included The One Minute Manager and The Precious Present.
