Sylvia awoke, her heart beat furiously. Emotions heightened, she shook from the frightfulness of the dream. She remained still, trying to make sense of the nightmare.

A New Man

John Page, founder and President of Cryo-Age was an affable and persuasive man. After just 30 minutes, he'd convinced the couple of his sincerity and his companies' claims. He admitted to the couple that the process was a slow one, taking over three years to complete, but when done, he assured them, David could be expected to live another 40-50 years!

One of "them" from away, as locals call out-of-state hunters. "Too bad he's wearing orange." he thinks, tugging at his camouflage knit cap.
