Eric must have enjoyed it since he didn't say "palm tree".
Sounds like fun to me.....
Nice start...has great potential for lots of interesting directions to go.
Could this develop into some kind of perverse mixture of "The Prisoner" and noir? After all we currently live in uncertain times and Eric is, to say the least, in a precarious position. Done right, your story can get good and dark.
