It is a time of great ups and downs, when wars of all kinds have filled our lives " wars between men, wars between nations, wars with guns, and wars without guns, and we lived in a world of smoke and mirrors " and a long-dead soul returns to tell his story. Peaceful or cruel, gentle or fierce, good or evil, where do we go from here and how do we choose? Can we see clearly? What is the truth? Perhaps only the departed can see.
