Synopsis

Mankind's ultimate questions are answered. Are we worthy? Are we ready? On a pleasant fall day in 2013, Rod Travis, a retired police captain encounters two miracles that will ultimately alter the lives of every being on Earth. Jon Huna recruits Rod with revelations, cryptic messages, and promises too good to be true... more like the ramblings of a pleasant messenger. Initially, Rod anticipates financial gains from the purchase of a tree and a tract of land. For the completion of his mission, Jon expects his promised reward... after all, he has waited centuries for compensation. As they embark on the greatest mission in the history of the world, neither man will receive what they anticipate. As the clock ticks, Rod, Jon, and twenty four team members rush to save as many souls as possible. Sometimes, the truth is too harsh to comprehend. Beware of the questions you ask because they will be answered. In SEVEN FISH TREE, nothing will ever be the same for either Rod or Jon... or mankind. We may yet be saved!

From the Inside Flap

Suddenly, I awoke, standing in the middle of a large field...mesmerized, staring at the most magnificent tree I had ever seen. It wasmassive! The giant tree rested in the center of a large tract of open landcomposed of softly rolling hills carpeted with lush green grass. Vibrantcolorful flowers dotted the Oz-like landscape. In the distance, hardwood treeslined the circular field.
The pastoral track reminded me of those rolling fields I'd seen ina popular children's TV show a few years earlier, The Teletubies. It wasno less striking than the green golf fairways at the Masters Tournament inAugusta, Georgia. However, the tree demanded the majority of my attention.Obviously, it was hundreds of years old or maybe thousands, judging by its sizealone. The trunk's diameter was the second most impressive aspect of it. Itsmain lower limbs ran almost perpendicular to the ground for about one-tenth ofits height. They grew shorter as they turned more towards the heavens to thetop.
I could not adequately guess how tall it was. While standingsome thirty yards from it, my neck could go back no farther, gazing at its top.Most of the limbs I could see could have easily been trees on their own. Thetree was not symmetrical in appearance, and its obvious weight and size did notseem to burden or strain it. Oddly, the words "pure perfection" came to mind.
