The Architect's Dream

“PLEASE let me have your urine.” I never thought I'd be saying these words to a woman, something I’d expect to only hear in a professional medical setting, like a clinic, between a doctor and a patient. I was no doctor. And her? She probably wasn't old enough to get her own driver's license. ---------------------------- In his forties, Robert’s life was unremarkable—mundane routine, a successful career in architecture, a beautiful wife, and a couple of hundred thousand dollars in his bank account. But his sudden encounter with a mysterious girl with a tattoo on her neck turned his life upside down. Each time he fell asleep, a fresh rodent bite appeared on his foot. Struck by a terrible curse that consumes his life, he must now find a way to escape his fate, and in the process, rediscover his self-identity and learn about human nature.
