The Beginning

All was as it should be. The ski conditions were textbook; the skies were deep blue, the wind was calm, it was twenty-four degrees and there were three inches of fresh powder sitting on top of a finely tuned base. There could not have been a more perfect day to begin altering the course of history.

This is the epic story of Alexander Gabriel, a brilliant 43-year old investment broker, who, following a skiing accident, finds himself inexplicably hurled back thirty-five years in time and forced to begin his life over as an eight year old.
Imagine the fantasy of returning to a younger age while retaining your hard-earned wisdom. Imagine the wonderful life you would lead, the mistakes you would easily avoid, the opportunities missed that you could now grab at will. However, these fantasies never include the terror and confusion of being cast back to one's youth; but there would be a great deal of confusion and a great deal of terror.
