Master storyteller Skip Johnson's newest gem takes readers on a powerful, captivating, often poignant journey of self-discovery through the beautiful, exotic Dominican Republic . . . A regretful, desperate New England lawyer.
A mysterious, sacred relic.
A life-changing Caribbean adventure you'll never forget. When young David Langley and his first-grade pal find an ancient-looking little statue buried in the woods in Newport, it's all fun and games-so they hide it in the opening of an old oak tree. Thirty years later they go back to retrieve it, and
everything
is about to change . . . After an archeologist confirms the statue's original ownership by a tribal chieftain from over 500 years ago, it is found to have been blessed with extraordinary powers . . . ones that David hopes can lead to healing in his own tragic life. But tapping into those powers will require David to be part of a mystical meeting in a remote Caribbean jungle within 48 hours . . . Or the statue and its gifts will vanish forever. Join David on this heroic, spiritual journey as he frantically races against the clock for the chance to overcome his burden of guilt, sadness, and regret-and regain the peace and contentment he desperately wants. It's a gripping, transformative story . . . that may change
your
life, too.
