He lied, cheated and stole his way into a CEO position and quickly became a very rich man. Wealth was all that he needed. He always viewed his friends as people who just wanted his money and that was it. His mother always bragged about Joes ancestry and what great men they were. Joe was living in the Internet age and he looked them all up but they were no where to be found and thought that if they did such great things then they should be mentioned, but they werent. Joes father was a great man. He and his brother, Joe Mclain, went to war but only Joe came back. Many thought that young Joe acted the way he did because he grew up without a father.

Joe was on a collision course with the mystical red door and five lifetimes of adventures were in his immediate future culminating with an ending that will both shock and endear him to whats important in life.

About the author

Gary D. Henry spent over twenty years in the environmental field and another fifteen years as a Government contractor. That is where he found the desire to write. As a technical writer for many of these years, he has written countless reports regarding testing procedures and testing results presented to Government agencies. Recently, he has had the desire to write stories. This came from a short story written about Alzheimer’s disease, which claimed the life of his father, Ray Henry in early 2009. The short story was given to Leeza Gibbons at her request for her to use with a visual piece that she was planning. His first six novels being “The Westward Journey of the Nebraskan Wind,” “The Castle Dark of Upstate,” “A life Measured by the Minute” “Opulence Among Us” “The Books of James C.
