(self-published on Kindle)

Claire Milton lives in Moscow with her husband, Jack Bowden, a scientist working in support of the Nuclear Threat Reduction treaty. Restive on returning to Russia from the States, she hopes to calm herself on the plane with a meditative trance — a Shamanic journey — which is anything but!
