Ace, a doctor and owner of Exodus Cryonics, invites his old school friends to Colorado to see his facility. Willy, an alcoholic is interested in being frozen until something can be done about his condition. He works with another doctor to train his brain to be a winning football player, Toby Ward. When Toby gives signals that he is really Willy, Donnie and Goody believe. When Donnie’s wife, Bev, dies, he loses the will to live. He tells Ace he wants to end his life. Mack, an arms dealer, owes $50K to Rudy, a Vegas loan shark. Rudy sends enforcers but Mack is elusive.
The story is fast paced, the characters are developed, and it is written in the third person point of view. Mack reminds me of many action heroes. There is a lot of action and deceit. This book was all over the place and I loved it all. I had no idea what to expect by the book title. If you like action and adventure with a bit of mystery thrown in, you may enjoy reading this book.
