Who would you trust with the power to alter the destiny of humanity?
Devastated by the loss of his son in a remote rainforest of Indonesian Papua, Quentin Darnell now must struggle to get his wife and surviving students safely back to civilization. But surviving the trek out of the wilderness is only the first challenge, because his group now possesses an object that can create anything or do anything, for better or for worse. Can anyone be trusted with such power? If they can somehow get the object to the United States, will they be heroesâor the worldâs destroyers?
Quentin and his group face impossible choices with each perilous leg of their journey. And every triumph that takes them closer to home also takes them closer to a more personal dilemmaâthey may no longer be welcome there.
