San Cristobal Russell Gross

In a world in which science explains more and more of life's mysteries, Brodie, a successful professional, seasoned traveler and avid diver, wrestles with how much merit, if any, should be given to the intangible aspects of life. The story takes place during his latest trip to an off the beaten path Latin American seaside town, San Cristobal. Although adventurous in travel, the main character, Brodie, is normally a cautious and calculating person by nature. However, a series of events and chance encounters leads to an inevitable internal clash. This beckons Brodie onto a course that forces him to face his angst head-on. The outcome is far from certain as doubt and tragedy strike at his very core. Join him on his journey into the depths. Although religious thought is embedded in the story, you have my word, this will be unlike any book you have read in this genre and most probably any other. If what you are looking for (like the main character of this book in his travels) is a unique reading experience, you will be pleased with your decision to take the plunge by adding this book to your reading list. At this price the "plunge" is a very small gamble.
