Cedric Johnson is a middle-aged insurance broker with a problem. More than just a mid-life crisis, Cedric keeps flashing back to key moments from his past. These are not just images in his mind though -- Cedric is physically flashing back. He finds his fifty-eight-year-old self in his nine-year-old body, then in the skin of himself at fourteen, and so on. Boom. He's standing at the brink of an event that defined the course of his life: in front of a schoolteacher about to lose control; at the initiation of a dangerous childhood game; arguing with a corrupt landlord; before his parents; a gas jockey; his daughter. Believing Cedric is a gritty tale that explores consciousness, regret, death, love, and what holds us together as individuals and as a nation. Told from the perspective of the individuals who Cedric's meets on his journey, this novel is not just a portrait of Cedric, but also the people he would one day look back and remember -- of the people he touched, whether either knew it at the time or not.
