What you need to know before your trail

The virgin rainforest seems a paradise to Englishman Simon Corbett. A last chance to salvage his career. A final refuge from a terrible secret.

But the jungle is no Eden. It hides secrets of its own. It does not forgive.

As Simon is drawn deeper into its haunted shadows, he learns to his horror that the past will not stay buried. For there are places in the forest where the line between the living and the dead is thinner than the skin of water.

Travel Guide

Mexico

Oh the author has had fun with this ! Much is based on real places but she has given them ficitonal names. Tachikel, Piedras Quemadas and Rio Usumacinta are all fictional but inspired by real places.

The author mentions Chichen Itza and San Bartolo which she researched for her own landscape.
