1867, Philadelphia. Amateur naturalist Walter Ash is on the eve of his second expedition up the Amazon when he dies in an accident. Bereft and seeking some way to honour him, his wife, his son and his young ward decide to go ahead with the journey. Like a long dream, the adventure hypnotizes and transforms them. As they leave the known world behind, they experience the jungle in all its fearsome wonder, and the reader does too.
