West of the Equator: In Search of Paradise: In Search of Paradise
Cheryl Bartlam DuBois
(Author)
Description
This is a satirical account of one man's spiritual journey, as told by his spirit guide. Ian is a well-seasoned West Indian merchant sailor who narrates the story of a Chicago stock trader, who goes to the West Indies and buys a 75' catamaran to set out in search of Paradise. Instead, he finds a female captain who turns out to be the love of his life, as well as chaos, mahem, and eventually true happiness--only after he faces unbelievable trials and is stripped of everything he owns along the journey.Product Details
