Publisher's summary

Ninety-three year old Garrett Belvedere, a retired aerospace engineer was wiling away the remainder of his life in an assisted living facility when he was offered the chance of a lifetime, a chance to return to work and be useful once again. With some trepidation he agreed to take the newly offered position, a position that could result in his death or a chance to live years longer. His job? Allow himself to be transported to a new colony world where, if he lived, he would be young again. After riots and world upheaval on Earth the colony was abandoned, left alone to survive or not on its own. Years later Earth tries to reassert dominance but fails. More years pass and the independent world of Eden agrees to accept new blood, new colonists from Earth who have been drafted for the job. The original colonists have all died, save for a very few. Our new hero, a very unlucky man in his opinion, is sent to Eden where he finds love and prosperity beyond his wildest dream, breaking his chain of 'bad luck'.
