Description

When famed archaeologist Francesca Pizarro discovers an ancient pre-Incan crypt, she unexpectedly uncovers more than a mere coffin. Strange apparitions appear before her, and she experiences a sudden wealth of advanced scientific knowledge. A black jaguar seems to observe her on many occasions, and a mysterious shaman keeps watch on her from afar. She becomes consumed with ancient prophecies concerning the return of Viracocha (the Inca creator god) and his wife-sister Khinchana. In Francesca's quest to unearth ancient mysteries, she discovers who she really is, and what her role is in securing the planet's future. Awaken and pay attention! Take the risk to venture into the unknown and reevaluate the possibilities of our origin. About the Author: David G. Rawson was raised in Invercargill, a small city at the southern end of New Zealand's South Island. Extensive trips to South America deepened his knowledge of local history and culture. Now retired after a career in public relations and marketing, Rawson resides in a remote part of Queen Charlotte Sound that is only accessible by boat. There he devotes his time to writing and is working on three other books, including a sequel to The Atacama Crystal. He also enjoys gardening, fishing, swimming, landscaping, and restoring his old house in his spare time. His first novel, The Inca Tapestry, won a national fiction writing contest in New Zealand in 2003. The Atacama Crystal was runner-up in the same contest two years later.
