ABOUT
THE BOOK

After forty years of blocking out the details of his early life, a tragedy summons Benoni Van Buskierke back home to Angel Falls. There, finally shaken from his emotional exile, he realises he must face his greatest fear – that beyond the torment of his own past lay deeper and more terrible truths. A would-be anthropologist, Ben begins to sift through the elements of his life, the myths and rituals, the symbols and mysteries that have shaped him, as well as his parents before him. For only in so doing will he at last be able to reconcile past and present, to piece together the puzzle of his haunted life. Before turning his attention to writing, Tim Wynveen had a successful career as a musician. He lives in Toronto.
