When novice monk Tenzin Dorje is told by his lama that the Red Army is invading Tibet, his country's darkest moment paradoxically gives him a sense of purpose like no other. He accepts a mission to carry two ancient, secret texts across the Himalayas to safety.

Half a century later, in a paradox of similarly troubling circumstances, Matt Lester is called upon to convey his own particular wisdom as a scientist, when Matt's nanotech project is mysteriously moved from London to a research incubator in Los Angeles.

Tenzin and Matt embark on parallel adventures which have spine-chilling connections. Tenzin's perilous journey through the Himalayas, amid increasing physical hardship and the ever-present horror of Red Army capture, is mirrored by Matt's contemporary, but no less traumatic challenges, as his passionate relationship with his fiancée, Isabella, and his high flying career undergo escalating crises.

It is at the moment when both Tenzin and Matt face catastrophe that their stories converge, spectacularly transforming our understanding of all that has gone before.

This book, like all of David Michie’s books, interweaves a wonderful story with Buddhist teachings. I literally take notes. I’m moving on to the second one in this series and hope to see many more.

This was one of those books that you can’t make up your mind as to whether or not you should savor it and and listen to a little bit at a time or instead plunge forward and spend the night listening to it. I did a little bit of both, it was a lovely journey, a lovely story and I am onto the next book immediately.

What a lovely tale….

So Insightful It Takes the Reader to Tibet

David Miche weaves a magical tale that is so rich with visual details and sensory data that one becomes transported to the high Himalayas, land of the lamas. Love this!

I needed to hear the teachings from this book to remind me of my path. I’m going to see if he has other books like this. High teachings in a simple fiction book.
