    About this ebook

    Parched, spent, and plodding through the relentless desert heat, Jack Barker thinks of nothing but finding his way home. A way to rest. Pushed to the limit of endurance, Jack begins to hear and see strange things in the swirling dust. It seems like a miracle when he suddenly finds himself with precious water to stay alive. But sometimes, staying alive isn't quite the miracle it might be.
