What if you stumbled upon a present-day paradise where there had been no Adam and Eve, where people lived perfect lives without the shadow of sin and guilt? And what if your arrival was the beginning of this Eden’s end?

Ryan Farraday is a Canadian army veteran hired to protect a gold mining venture in the remote mountains of British Columbia. Unfortunately, he is more interested in the site manager’s wife, Elizabeth Malone, than in the safety of the operation. Ryan’s negligence has deadly consequences for him and the project’s management team. When their work crew rebels, they are overwhelmed and left to die. The group wanders without hope or direction until they are saved by a Native people living in a land seemingly untouched by sin. The outsiders, however, remain distrustful, refusing to believe that such goodness could ever exist without some darker purpose.

Elizabeth especially thinks it’s all a sham. She sees only danger beneath the tribe’s unnatural integrity and is convinced that something hidden and sinister lies beneath the surface. She despises Lunara above all, a Native woman whose grace and purity increasingly attract Ryan’s attention.

As fear and suspicion spread, Ryan must determine if such a perfect society has been a hoax all along or if some outside evil has attacked a defenseless land. Hardest to accept is the possibility that this paradise is being destroyed—by himself.
