Alex is kicked out of the house by his wife. Down on his luck, he signs up with an investigative agency in Houston. The job takes him to France, Switzerland, and Germany. He blows his assignment in France, and gets shot, twice. While he’s recuperating in a Paris hospital, God begins to invade his vivid dreams. The reason? Could it be that the Grim Reaper is reaching out for him, and God was giving him one last opportunity to right his immoral ways? Alex thinks so, and decides to walk the straight and narrow road.
This is the story of a colorful but wicked Panamanian lothario from Texas who tries to find high ground. Throughout his surrealistic European journey, Alex is always in the company of irritable men, who chastise his behavior, and willing women who encourage it. He spends time in brothels, both real and imagined. Does he succeed? Not hardly. In France he gets arrested for indecent exposure. Upset with the French’s “Higher than Thou” attitude, he goes to Switzerland where they arrest him for immoral behavior and resisting arrest. Upset with the Swiss’ inability to tolerate proper “American Behavior,” he leaves for Germany for one last attempt at salvation. Then on a train leaving Munich, he meets Helga…
