A pregnant Mayan woman goes into the vast Yucatan jungle where she gives birth. She and her child survive in an ancient, abandoned city with an undisturbed cenote. The two endure until the boy leaves and make his way to civilization. A blind curandera takes the child in, and a crippled Madonna, a protective priest, a lobo detective, and many others figure in the boy’s experiences. His story encompasses the breadth of the Mayan jungle and all its hidden mysteries. The Indio inheritors of this region of Mexico are alive today, and they carry on their traditions and culture as they have for thousands of years. This book pays tribute to the importance of the protection and preservation of this people and their prehistoric treasures, which are buried throughout the peninsula we know as the Yucatan.

Andrew Shows is the author of Indians, Cowboys, and UFOs and Moctezuma’s Revenge, both of which are humorous memoirs of his 1970s experiences on the Navajo Reservation and traveling in Mexico, both from Sunstone Press. Being a teacher and then a professional artist for most of his life, he has now turned to writing with a focus on mysteries south of the border.
