Sixty year-old Doug Slater was a wealthy New York banker. One night, his high-stress life caught up with him. Doug had a stroke in his sleep. For the last four years, he has been in a coma.

The last thing he remembered was going to sleep. No one was more surprised than Doug when he woke up this morning.

Partly, this was because he didn’t know where he was. Mostly, though, he was surprised to discover that he was now a young Latino man.

The pilot was the only one injured, but he was as good as dead if the locals had heard the crash. There was nothing to do but leave him behind and make our way back to the east as best we could.
