It sounds like a really interesting story. If you are looking for something similar with a slightly different bent, I would suggest Minding Ben.

It had a heck of an ending as well!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-90050217902211919842011-12-08T09:06:10.670-05:002011-12-08T09:06:10.670-05:00I've never heard of this one but, boy, does it...I've never heard of this one but, boy, does it sound good to me!
