MY TALISMAN: Book 2 of the Dangerous Adventures Series
Adventure Meets Magical Realism in the Himalayas
Still recovering from the Mount Rainier tragedy, Max yearns to return to the mountains. But little does he know, his next expedition will push him to the brink of an even greater test - one cloaked in ancient Himalayan mysticism.
When Max's grandfather agrees to deliver a powerful relic to a remote monastery in Bhutan, Max seizes the chance to come along. At first, it seems like a straightforward trek through the treasured valley kingdom. That is, until Max crosses paths with Hillary, a fiery Scottish redhead as skilled at scaling rocks as she is at getting under Max's skin.
The two climbing hotshots instantly clash...until they realize they need each other's help to survive the unexpected dangers arising. Ruthless poachers, a corrupt Bhutanese official, and Chinese Special Forces have all set their sights on the sacred relic Max's grandfather carries - an artifact rumored to unleash incredible abilities for its bearer.
Worse still, a cranky Bhuddist dakini believes the talisman belongs to her alone. Now Max must do what he vowed never to do again - put his life on the line, this time navigating a realm where the magical and modern worlds perilously collide.
In Book 2 of the Dangerous Adventure Series, author Robby Robertson draws from his own treks through Bhutan to immerse readers in a high-altitude, high-stakes thriller meshing real-life adventure with Himalayan mystical lore. As Max pursues both the physical and metaphysical challenges before him, he must decide what he's willing to risk for his promise to return the relic to its home.
When Himalayan mysticism becomes real, will Max and Hillary have the fortitude to make it down alive?
