"Shawn Reed woke up on Freedom Beach. It looked like paradise. Perhaps it was... But he didn't remember dying -- in fact, he didn't remember much at all.

"And what sort of paradise was full of talking statues, and some really weird laws? And why did everyone there seem to be from his half-remembered past? Perhaps he was in Hell...

"And then he started to have some very bizarre dreams, none of which he would have chosen himself. If Freedom Beach wasn't Heaven or Hell, what was it? Who had imprisoned him there, and why? He was determined to find out". [jacket blurb, UK pbk, 1987]
