A Descent Unravelling

This is a story of adventure, friendship, and self-discovery firmly rooted in the culture, dramatic landscape, and magic of northern Vancouver Island. When a hike in the woods goes horribly wrong, young Shirley is forced to think on her feet and grow up quickly. While saving her father from a terrible fall, she notices an unusual cave in the distance. She soon finds that she is unable to shake the vision of it in her mind and embarks on a long journey of discovery. Aided by a mystical friend, she stumbles on more than she bargained for in the darkness of the strange cavern. The second installment in the Her Vision Quest series follows Shirley's experience after waking from her mystical journey with the soul of the young boy who had helped her through the wilderness. After returning to the mountain with two friends to find the boy's remains, she comes home to discover that her father has died. Together with her spirit friend, she learns to live with her loss and move on with her life.
