It started with a birthday present from my friend, Elora. The book was called "The Lost City of the Monkey God" by Douglas Preston and it was a memoir of his travels into La Mosquitia - a region in Honduras said to contain La Ciudad Blanca - a legendary city. It was thrilling to be able to read about a real expedition like one could only dream about as a kid, but what was more thrilling for me was the end of the novel, when events take a turn for the worse for Preston and his crew.
