The
story's plot offers adventure, mystery, and a trip to exotic Yucatan.
Having
lost her husband to a dive accident, Kendall Jackson wrestles with her grief,
as well as with a heaping load of frustration in dealing with her stepson. Then
there’s the fear of not knowing who she can trust as her world goes spinning
out of control.
A
mysterious briefcase, belonging to her husband, contains maps and cryptic
messages which lead her on an Indiana Jones-like trek through
"jungles" in and out of the city.
The
beautiful locale lends itself to the descriptive writing, and I learned some interesting
facts about Yucatan/Mayan history, and about diving in the amazing cenotes (natural,
deep wells). I found myself holding my breath when they were exploring those
scary, underwater caves.
It took me a while to get into the story, but
the pace soon picks up. The ending was very creative. I would recommend this
fun read to fans of adventure.

Rocked by her husband's tragic death, Kendall Jackson strives to put her life back together. But Ryder, her nineteen-year-old stepson, is bitter and wants nothing to do with her. And she can't keep the grief at bay. Sometimes, it's so strong, she wonders if life is worth living.
A call from a cave diver in Mexico gives her hope of mending the relationship with her stepson. Before his death, her husband arranged a diving expedition as a birthday gift for his son. Kendall persuades Ryder to honor his father's last wish.
From the campus of Western Maryland College to the woods of Camp David and the caves of the Yucatán, Kendall and Ryder take a journey to discover what her husband worked so hard to hide, and to protect his treasured secrets from falling into the wrong hands. The choices they make will decide their fate and the future of others. Will they risk everything for the truth?
