'I close my eyes. Right. When I open them again, the person staring back at me from this mirror will be me. Please, please, make it be me!

'After a terrible accident, Gus can't believe he's survived. But has he? He's woken up in the body of an old man and his real body is unconscious in intensive care. Now he's got a seventy-year-old wife, really bad taste in clothes, and everyone thinks he's crazy.

'Gus lives and breathes basketball, but could he actually be playing for his life this time? Will he ever be fourteen again?' (From the publisher's website.)
