This is a satirical account of one man's spiritual journey, as told by his spirit guide. Ian is a well-seasoned West Indian merchant sailor who narrates the story of a Chicago stock trader, who goes to the West Indies and buys a 75' catamaran to set out in search of Paradise. Instead, he finds a female captain who turns out to be the love of his life, as well as chaos, mahem, and eventually true happinessâonly after he faces unbelievable trials and is stripped of everything he owns along the journey.
