Zade McDonald is a San bushman teenager living in the wilds of the Okavango swamps. He’s a shaman who can speak to animals, read minds and connect with forces much greater than himself. On his journey, Zade has to make a choice that no son should have to: he must either save his mother or the universe.

Zade’s powers are both a gift and a curse; and they haven’t gone unnoticed. Someone has been watching him. His extraordinary powers attract both good and evil – and dark forces already have a hold on him. Will he choose the right path in time to save the people he loves?

This whirlwind of a novel fires the reader into an extraordinary human future, and ricochets into our common past. A past that is not quite the same as the history books tell it.
