Rapid fire images: sunlight, flames, smoke, dusty black male feet, and an ambulance... Fire!

And, yes, someone is badly hurt. It is bad. The eerie beeping of a heart monitor and a ventilator pump clicking and whooshing in the background, confirms this. Suddenly, everyone is gone. We are left with a body in fetal position on a deserted village street, covered in thick soot. It is as still as ice.

Not for long. 

It is bright white! A new day, and we are in sunny California. Angel (Caucasian) wakes up to her beautiful fiancé, Lilly (Caucasian). All seems well with the world, except not really.

From the moment Angel wakes up, her world turns surreal: a female voice recites the Lords Prayer in Swahili, a doctor informs the owner of the voice that it is time: to withdraw life support. As if that is not enough to drive a girl mad, a black nurse peers into her eyes with a penlight, then disappears. Not long after that, vivid red roses and lavender lilies suddenly appear in Angels bedroom. She freaks out, they disappear. Angel confides in Lilly that she feels she is losing her mind. Well, it is worse. Her world crumbles to pieces; she is suddenly in burned clothes, blood and soot all over her. She can not breathe... She is violently yanked back!

All goes black.

Angel opens her eyes, she is in a hospital in Kampala, Uganda. She is a stunning black woman covered in burns who was just taken off life support and instead of dying, woke up. Now, the real drama begins.
