Features

Margery Benson's life ended the day her father walked out of his study, and never came back. Forty years later, abandoning a dull job, she advertises for an assistant to accompany her on an expedition to the other side of the world to find a beetle that may or may not exist. Enid Pretty is not what Margery had in mind. But together they will find themselves pulled into in an adventure that is way beyond Margery's expectations; riding a mule, dodging eels, burying a gun, driving a jeep through a cyclone, hiding a wanted criminal, and eventually coming alive at the top of a red dust mountain. This is a story that is less about what can be found than the belief it might be found; it is an intoxicating adventure story and it is also a tender exploration of faith, vocation, motherhood and a friendship between two unforgettable women that defies all boundaries.
