Running away from his father's tyrannical grip over his life, Nathan sets out with his two best friends to uncover the truth behind the legend. The truth, however, proves much more than Nathan ever believed possible. Entering into the vast Indian jungle after stern warnings against it, Nathan never expected to meet anyone, especially a young native woman belonging to an ancient civilization. In morbid desperation the woman beseeches Nathan's help, for it appears he isn't the only one bent on discovering the Tiger's Eye. A ruthless villain, the man is determined to vanquish the native tribes and claim the Eye for himself. Now suddenly Nathan's journey is more about life and death, than wealth and glory. Amidst the danger and chaos can love bloom? Will secrets of the past sever family bonds? Can good overcome a senseless evil bred on pure greed and hatred, or will the challenges to come be too great to bear? When love, deceit, hatred, and fear all clash, is there really any in the end who win?
