It all began with the mysterious murder of a young teacher, Maryann Wesley. When she is discovered brutally killed in her own home, the only clue to the reason for her death is a missing map of ancient lore-a map that is rumored to lead straight to the Garden of Eden. Part of an obscure and mystifying ancient text knows as the Adam and Eve chronicles, this map is believed to be an artifact passed down from generation to generation through Cain himself. The person who holds this map would have access to the two most powerful plants in the world: the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life. When this detail comes out, Mike McVey, the lead detective on the case, realizes that this is bigger than mere stolen property, and the map must be discovered before it can be exploited by any number of opportunists willing to control the map and its contents at any price. More intrigue develops when flowers with amazing healing and rejuvenating powers surface in the garden at the school where Conci D'Amato McVey teaches. The chase is on as word gets out about these plants purported to be from the Garden of Eden. Maryann will not be the only casualty in this quest for immortality and power. Follow Mike, Conci, and her aunt, Sister Mary Concetta Rose on this harrowing journey of history and spirituality in the Mystery of the Adam and Eve Chronicles.
