His wife was among the rekindled dead now. He'd heard that she was on a plane to Zanzibar with five other rekindled dead. As a "warm" he was not really allowed to make contact with her. The dead liked to stay in their cold-cities. But he'd loved her so much when she was alive, he just had to try. Science Fiction Hall of Fame Pick, Nebula Award(R) Winner, Locus Poll Award Winner, Hugo Award Nominee
