Rex, the Kid, the Whore, the Witch, and the Scientist

When "golden boy" wealth manager Rex Reynold's yacht was struck and sunk by a surfacing Russian submarine, his young son was lost at sea and his wife suffered a brain injury. The FBI, determined to cover up the Russian's involvement, forced Rex to accept the story that he was drunk and sank the yacht after running into a shoal. Naturally, Rex's life changed forever. His wife, who had amnesia, blamed him for the loss of their son. After she took up with an Episcopal minister and filed for divorce, Rex sought refuge and enlightenment at MEXICO'S #1 RATED PSYCHEDELIC SPA, which led him to a small Mexican village where he met a young beggar named Reynaldo. There, he learned the story of Reynaldo's mother, the puta (whore), his aunt, a possible witch (bruja), and his father, an American scientist. Rex's already upside-down life changed yet again as he helped Reynaldo; investigated a Ponzi scheme, and ultimately and accidentally learned what the Russian sub was doing off the coast of California.
