Publisher's Synopsis
It is coming. There is no defense, no weapon. There is nothing they can do. In a time before written words, the secrets of the ancients and the traditions of prehistory were recorded in other ways. In this startling novel, an island community and their trusted leaders are pledged to protect that legacy as their idyllic world falls apart. But how will it all be remembered when the distortions of history begin? Myth and archaeological evidence are the backbone for a narrative explanation of the end of a civilization in a sensitive and fascinating look at a very ancient world.
