THE STONE HE
TURNED:
A ROSETTA STONE
SAGA
A novel by Joanne
Shaw
Ex forensics star, now Geologist, Jack Wheeler pulls together
his detective work and finds an encrypted stone which has
haunted his curiosity since he entered the field of his
choice. He finds the legendary rock etched with an unfinished
sentence.
The rock shows signs of age, but has associated
linguistics that are only modern. It is surprising it was even
written in English. It is like turning around The Stone Age
and The Wheel Age. It defies logic. But the stone
appears authentic. The chippings on the rock were not made by
even a remotely modern instrument and prehistoric fossil is found in
the grooves of the lettering. It is as if whoever carved those
letters on the rock, did not know at all that they were
spelling.
He searches out the meaning of the inscription
which is a half written statement about love -- and instead he
stumbles upon a literal meaning of life.
He seeks out advice
of a softer stone, Ms. Rosetta Stone, Private Investigator and
Psychic Extraordinaire. The feminist femme fatale is a
humanitarian who uses her psychic abilities to spot pedophiles out
of crowds and rescue kids from their efforts, drive people home
without prior knowledge of their addresses and heal Jack's headaches
with her hands.
He learns from her further insight into his
rock as well as information about a crime involving a missing child
which occurred where the rock was found. The two assist to
solve the crime together then antidote other injustices.
They
both meet the love of their life. They have a sexy love
affair, where he is he and she is she, which leads them to their
marriage. She solves for him certain mysteries about nature
and human nature. He solves for her everything
else. |
