SEAS TALES

Fourteen months after a floatplane crash left him legally dead, a 69-year-old Montana builder walks up his own driveway and sees his wife on her knees, scrubbing the walnut floors he laid by hand — while his brother's wife orders her around with a wine glass in hand. Instead of knocking, the "dead man" turns around in the dark and decides to stay dead just a little longer... until he has everything he needs to take back his house, his fortune, and his wife's dignity.
