'Living forest, four acres of it for every person on earth, is needed to provide enough oxygen for the survival of the human race. With the present thoughtfulness rate of destruction of rainforests all over the world, is any hope possible for our children? And what could happen to our planet?
This scenario unfolds in an exciting story of a man and a woman in the depths of an Australian rainforest. But are they really alone? Is their love in the rainforest being watched from beyond this world? Could help for the future of mankind come from the future itself?' (Back cover).
