Wall Street and Easter Island come crashing together in this epic and cautionary story of two lost civilizations: one perilously lost in the present and the other tragically lost in the past, each on their journey to find peace, freedom, sustainability, and resilience.Rookie New York derivatives trader, Alec James, has a fateful encounter with Roshanak Amari, the most beautiful woman he has never seen, knowing only her eyes from behind the enigmatic veil of the Middle East. Young, ambitious, and in love, they find themselves on opposing sides of the dark financial market that conceals Alec’s world, a market so vast and misguided it brings the entire global economy to its knees.A millennium earlier, King Hotu Matu’a, the Great Parent, settles one of the most isolated places on earth. For centuries his family gazes toward Hiva - the land beyond - and painstakingly erects hundreds of towering statues to lead generations in becoming one of the greatest island societies of all time. That is, until they are discovered by outsiders on Easter Sunday, 1722.Their fates come crashing together when Alec discovers an ancient wooden tablet. The lost Rongorongo script of Easter Island has a warning for the future, if only it can be deciphered in time.Part fact, part fiction. You will be amazed to discover which is which.
