Publisher's Synopsis
WHAT IF YOUR TEN-YEAR-OLD KNEW MORE ABOUT YOUR PAST THAN ANYONE IN THE WORLD-EVEN YOU?
Sheri Lambert is the classic New York workaholic: driven ad exec, financially successful, emotionally empty. Searching for meaning in her life, Sheri becomes a single mother. From the start her son, Zig, displays strange behavior. He recalls people and places he couldn't possibly know and leads Sheri to a startling discovery of a hidden ancestry she never knew existed. With Zig, the past becomes the present and reality merges with the fantastic. From the urban grind of present-day Brooklyn to the shamans and rituals in the rain forests of 19th century Panama and Costa Rica, two interwoven stories collide. Sheri learns she must find the courage to trust Zig and his mystical guidance to uncover the secrets of her past-or remain lost from herself and the truth about her origins.
