The Race Of A Lifetime

Blaise had given up. Completely. With the failure of his career, the collapse of his family life, and the suicide of his wife, he just simply didn't want to be part of this world any more, at all. Unexpectedly, he finds his wish granted, by The Commissioner. The strange Being has an offer that Blaise must accept: Run a perfect Race, for his own Soul, and while he trains there will be no distractions. Which means, for Blaise, no other people in the entire world. No one to talk to, or laugh with, or eat with. The one relief is the Orb, a supernatural device that lets him travel into any of his memories, where he can eat, love, and party with others, He also can change his history while there, but no changes remove the looming deadline for his all-important race. And re-living his past also means facing his demons. What's worse than death? Living again, with the threat of not living at all. Can Blaise rescue himself by heeding the lessons of his own story?
