This is the second book in the Paul Marzeky Mystery series. Paul's life has become a series of spirals, going forward and back, incorporating ever-new life experiences as he plunges head on into the veritable cornucopia of delights presented to a young man fresh home from the war, and living in San Francisco at the end of the 1960's. One of the many worlds in which he is involved is working on in-patient psychiatric units and attempting to apply his nascent healing skills, while at the same time fully indulging fully in the psychedelic world of Bay Area music, art, and the still potent dreams of revolution.
