You Cannot Grasp the River (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781649491527)

It must be a ghost!
A six-year-old Stone Age Papuan boy, Benjad, is thrust into the modern world when a soldier- turned-missionary and his wife rescue him from an evil shaman who has killed his parents. The shaman, enraged, plots the murders of both the boy and his adopted family. The story is filled with humor, action, and suspense as it traces Benjad's adjustments to his new life. A theme of a conflicted worldview between his clan's traditional demand for vengeance and his Christian faith is ever present. The conflict culminates twelve years later in a deadly struggle between the young man and the murderous shaman in an unexpected finale.
