“A rip-snorting journey into a world few of us will experience, alongside a boon companion who’s searching for answers not only in the rainforest but in his life. Readers who loved ‘The Lost City of Z’ and ‘Turn Right at Machu Picchu’ have found their next great true adventure in this terrific book.”
– Mitchell Zuckoff, author of Lost in Shangri-La.
“A fascinating and gripping account, a true to life Indiana Jones adventure.”
– Douglas Preston, author of The Monster of Florence
“A tale for the ages.”
– Mark Adams, author of Turn Right at Macchu Pichu
