Foreign Seed
Foreign Seed
What to do when the answers we most desperately seek are the very ones that elude us?
China, June 1918.
When the explorer Frank Meyer mysteriously disappears from a ferry on the Yangtze River, American Vice-Consul Samuel Sokobin is tasked with finding the missing man. With no clues to guide his search and fearing failure in his new post as a man of rank, Sokobin heads upriver with Mr. Lin, a Chinese interpreter he's never met.
However, the investigation quickly turns deeply personal for Sokobin, himself mired in guilt and grief over his daring younger brother--a fighter pilot gone MIA in the world war. As Sokobin continues to desperately search for answers, the fates of the two missing men become conflated in his head and heart, threatening to break him. Equal parts mystery and classic novel, Foreign Seed is a moving testament to friendship, faith, and the resilience of the human spirit.
Inspired by historical events.
