All Raymond Quinn wanted was a quiet place to enjoy a good cup of coffee. How difficult could that be in Seattle? Newly retired, Ray had no job or close relationships to fill his days. He was adrift and tended to fall into his life-long habit of second-guessing his choices, both big and small.
Determined to find a less-crowded place than the downtown Starbucks he normally frequented, Ray finds himself at Other Worlds Coffee, far from the hordes of cruise ship passengers and panhandlers. It is there he meets a man with a shocking revelation:
"You are blessed, not cursed, because you now have a chance to eliminate regrets for past choices. Everyone must live the life they create for themselves based on decisions they make. However, sometimes, a very small number of people do get a second chance. They learn they can relive a portion of an alternative life. You are one of those fortunate people."
Raymond Quinn was dead and about to embark on the adventure of his lifetimes.
