Searching for Eden
No Customer Reviews
When Evan Jordan's 14-year old daughter dies of cancer, he goes on a quest to find a place where children don't die, and where life is still good. His dying daughter had expressed an interest in the Garden of Eden. Could it be that such a place still exists? He goes searching for that garden, hoping thereby to rediscover the goodness and innocence he lost with his young daughter's death.Evan's story intersects with those of a beautiful divorced archaeologist (providing his romantic interest) and a 14-year old Hispanic prostitute; both of whom join Evan in his quest. The three Americans are thrown into the turbulent chaos of Iran and the political turmoil surrounding that country's nuclear capability. Evan and friends travel through Iran and Iraq, and the Island of Bahrain, looking for clues to the Garden's reality. They dig in ancient cemeteries, climb ziggurats, race through war zones and examine bizarre art carved into human skulls, all the time seeking the secret to humanity's foundational story.The journey speaks to our world today, where people hunger for a time that was more innocent than the existential chaos that surrounds us.
