Peter Mckenzie is in need of changes in his monotone life as a Computer crack in California. So he takes a a flight to Maui and gets a feeling for the place. On his first evening he watches some sixty-going-on-ninety guy having the time of his life with a beautiful girl not even a third his age. That lucky man has something special - a tattoo, a kind of spiritual design right on his ankle.So, the next day going to a local happening to Lahaina, he gets himself the same tattoo from a mysterious Australian named Nigel, hoping his destiny will take a new turn to the better, more delightful side ... And Nigel makes him a gift, too: a intricately carved mask the indigenies used to make for their spirits... Later on the beach he meets the beautiful Amanda Hamilton. Amanda turns out to be the woman of his dreams, living also in thre same town - Santa Barbara, and they decide to date there after returning home.But there is a higher force that intervenes and Peter's life will never be the same again.It is a very good written short story which could have been even more extended.But this way the reader may imagine by him-/herself how the story goes on ...I liked this read very much.
