This story begins in the depths of a lost mind... a mind locked away in a mental asylum for many years. The house on Cumana Point is the key to unlocking a troubled past. It is a story of a man who desperately needs to find out where he fits in the world and has to rely on bits and pieces associated with the house, even though he has no idea of his connection to the house. As the story progresses, George Lawrence becomes aware that he is closely tied to this ghostly house and only with time will it reveal its secrets... his secrets. George Lawrence returns to the house on Cumana Point where, though abandoned for more than twenty years, he discovers snippets of his life and rekindles memories of his past. George searches for answers to questions that have taken place in a time shortly after the second World War when the Caribbean island of Trinidad is holding onto a political system that is corrupt and greedy. There is hope that George - a young, politically well-placed lawyer - can make a difference. This is not to be as he faces many challenges preventing him from attaining his goal of a democratic and just government. George’s journey becomes his present, his past and his future. Each step opens and closes a door to his past, clarifies his present, and determines his future.
