Root of the Sacred Tree

A big-city psychiatrist has lost his sanity and bolted his practice. A Lakota elder has abandoned his Vision and given up on his people. A powerful woman has lost her confidence and fled from her They are separated by three-quarters of a continent and an even wider cultural chasm, but they are collected by an invisible hand and cast like dice onto a dangerous but astonishing road. Root of the Sacred Tree is neither a feel-good tale demonstrating that We-are-all-Related nor is it of the "spiritual journey" genre. Rather it is the tale of three very different, angry, stubborn, gifted people who find themselves on a dangerous path toward healing.
