Description
Johnson Mukerjii is a happy man; he's the CEO of a successful high-tech company about to unveil a newer and better technology. Customers are lining up around the block. The money is pouring in. His beautiful wife greets him poolside every night with a drink and a sexy smile. He's got it made. An alien landing changes everything. Suddenly, his company is worthless and the lovely wife has become the lovely ex-wife, taking every single penny of liquid assets with her. Mukerjii finds himself in the park, cooking for the other homeless tramps, desperately trying to reconstruct the gourmet meals of his previous existence with surplus food, some of it labelled "not for human consumption". His only hope to reclaim his life is to rebuild his connections with a strange science fiction writer whom the aliens seem to like...and to find a product the aliens will buy.
