Synopsis:
Carter Spence is a 26 year-old accountant out of Boston who has an out-of-body experience following a car accident that kills his parents. He views the chaos from above the scene of the accident, then passes through the tunnel and reunites with relatives who have long been dead. A woman he does not recognize approaches him and says, “Welcome, son.” Her message to him is that he needs to be aware of his true identity and should follow signs that will lead him there. She mentions mountains, but Carter is jolted back into his physical body before she can finish.

After burying his parents, Carter heads west and meets a free-spirit named Brenda, whom he is drawn to on many levels. She becomes his travelling companion and leads him to Boulder, Colorado, and to an old white house of an old man named Martin. Diaries, hypnosis, and past-life regression reveal a bizarre connection between these three. Carter discovers that the truth to his identity can only be found by pursuing the answer to whether he is the reincarnation of his biological father in what is shaping up to be a love affair rekindled beyond the grave.

My Thoughts

I was completely and utterly intrigued by this story from beginning to end. Carter who ultimately survives a near death experience is given a second chance on life.  All that he was told and believed his entire life was false now he gets to figure out who he really is and if it is too much to handle when faced with the truth. I loved the raw emotion that Glenn Maynard wrote with and the characters where amazing. The depth that Glenn Maynard write with is fantastic and the telling of this story was like a life experience and not just a story I recommend this to be on everyone's reading list.
