Claire DuMond can't believe her father would simply lapse into a coma for no apparent reason. Even his doctors are mystified. And she's not the type to sit around and wring her hands. So Claire sets out to learn the cause, and soon lands on the Caribbean island of Martinique. There she finds romance. Meets a real live witch doctor. And steps smack into the middle of a world of drug smuggling where nosing around is not a good idea. But that's only half of it. Claire also travels deep into the dimension we call the mind, and back in time, in her effort to discover the root of the father's illness.
