Monkey me

Összefoglaló

On April 20, 1999, two students walked nonchalantly into Columbine High School in America, fired from a multi-gun arsenal and lobbed homemade bombs throughout the school. They killed 12 students and one teacher before they committed suicide. Why?
America, for generations, has been hailed as the land of opportunity, a place to make your dreams come true. Is it? What happened to the American dream of the two boys who shot and killed their classmates and then themselves?

"Monkey Me," written by American author, Zach LeBeau, is a novel exploring the confusion and struggle within the mind of a young American, Joshua Roudeau, who's searching for his dream and the meaning of his life. Josh is a young, hot shot Hollywood film producer who thought his dream was fame and fortune until he got it. But he had to pay a price far greater than what he had bargained for, his freedom. Wanted by the Federal government for several counts of fraud, he escapes from America and is forced to leave behind his life of pleasure and fortune. He finds himself alone and helpless on the island of St. Martin in the Caribbean with one question haunting his brain, "Who am I?" From this simple question sparks an epic adventure of discovery as Josh travels from island to island in search of the missing pieces to put his life back together.

He must learn to trust his heart as he finds himself dealing with the FBI, modern day pirates, a deadly hurricane, a political revolution and more dangerous still, the love he has for a young Hungarian woman.

Will he discover the beauty of life before it is too late? Or will he succumb to the anger and pressure that capture so many?
