More than twenty years ago, Pep Torres was involved in a catastrophic auto accident in which his heart stopped. He found himself on the outskirts of the afterlife, in a strange limbo he called the Boulevard of the Dead. On the Outskirts of Heaven is the story of Torres's remarkable and redemptive near-death journey and his purpose-driven return to the land of the living. It is an epic tale of soul retrieval and of rediscovering our purpose in life. Most importantly, On the Outskirts of Heaven touches upon a shocking revelation: that all of mankind is mesmerized by a matrix-like illusion that enslaves us all. But there is hope in the end that by answering our calling and pursuing our dreams, we can free ourselves from this illusion and become closer to God.
