Dr. Drew Coleman's seemingly charmed life is shattered by devastating news, causing him to go on a ten-year transcontinental journey of self-discovery. He explores the nature of God and Man, the divine inspiration for many of New York's landmarks and artistic treasures, and the relationship between the found and the lost souls passing on the street.
In time, he discovers and explains the scientific basis for the meaning of life, and he is finally found... or finds himself.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a contemporary literary exploration of the emotional and psychological depths of great personal loss, and one man's journey toward self-discovery... again.
