About this ebook
In the Pacific war 1942, a Lieutenant Jones has orders to secure a cave before the main forces moves move up. He does so and then his orders are to resettle the islanders back on the island. He does so and leaves.
After the war 1945, his last order is to check on the island’s people. There are few left, and he must remove them all to a better place before he is mustered out.
Some 50 odd years later he dies and leaves a box to only his grandson. In the box are soil samples from the cave and more details on events that occurred with the people. His grandson finds the original packets used to record events of the war. The chairman and advisor for his degree feels he should continue for an advanced degree.
The chairman wishes to have the many packets of handwritten history but settles for the cave. He funds an expedition to the island just north of Guam and south if Tinian. The natives will not approach the cave now or in the past. His school advisor Eli’eli has a tie to the chain of islands.
In the cave are many unexplained items. The characters on the back wall, the melted droplets of limestone, and the black carbon silvers. Only a laser could have carved the characters. Few pictures were taken before the cave collapses. They leave the island with enough material for several degrees. However, the island sinks, and they have only what they have saved.
In the soil lab. a person is burning through 3-inches of limestone and duplicating the characters in near perfect form. The math department decodes some of the characters from the top half of the wall.
Ask why the Mathematician skipped most of the translated characters, “I understand all of this. The last page is active research, I must speak to the person that is working this area of research.”
Will the grandson follow in his grandfather’s steps and fall victim to the women of the island and what they are hiding?
