St. Maarten — Jaron Summers

Perhaps both.

He walked down the ramp of the DC-10 jumbo jet, a flight bag swinging effortlessly from his muscular arm.

As the balmy sea air washed away the harsh odors of the jetliner, Robert forgot America, forgot he had been away from the small Caribbean Island of St. Maarten a third of his lifetime.

Win or die...
