Searching for the Dragonfly Mark Sophir

Ian Goldstein is a brilliant investment banker on pace to financial nirvana but living a life devoid of satisfaction. One morning, while rushing to make an important meeting with Chinese investors in Manhattan, he encounters a young woman vying for the same taxi. In a rare act of unselfishness, he relinquishes the cab to the beautiful stranger which precipitates a series of startling events that profoundly change his life. There is romance and tragedy, humor and despair, and ultimately transformation and rejuvenation. The reader is taken on a journey from New York to Iceland to Yap Island to Southern California and meets compelling characters along the way, forming a tale that twists and turns in unexpected directions. Searching for the Dragonfly examines the roles of coincidence, conscious decision-making, and spirituality in producing life's triumphs and adversities.
