Swallow's Cave - Hardcover

From the Nile River to an underwater cave in the Kingdom of Tonga, discover an adventurer's tales of adventure, discovery, and personal growth.

Carl looks homeless to those who'd see him from not more than a passing glance. And even his home, a ramshackle grey bamboo lean-to, doesn't do much to convince them otherwise of his status.

However, Carl is much more than meets the eye. He's a tour guide and tinkerman to the villagers of Vaval. He's also called father by the most important person in his life-Kayla, his daughter.

One day when he comes to work at Captain Tom's Pontoon Boat, Carl learns he has a special tour on deck for today: Tom's family from Australia who want to visit Swallow's Cave.

What happens next is a time-bending narrative of reflection, growth, and inspiration.

Readers will meet and fall in love with Carl's simple life in a short story of love, life, and loss. The story features miracles, heartbreak, and an illuminating hope for a better tomorrow on the backdrop of a quaint island and a cave so beautiful many assume it's somehow not real.

For readers who love short stories, family life fiction, and adventure, Swallow's Cave promises a journey of heart and soul.
