Ethan is a sixteen-year-old boy who, with his twelve-year-old brother Rory,
reluctantly leaves his boarding school for the summer to be dragged to
the other side of the world by their reclusive and eccentric uncle. When
their uncle finally explains that he is hunting for a true, living
dinosaur in the heart of the Congo River basin, Ethan immediately pegs
him for a lunatic. However, using documented eyewitness accounts, a
vivid description of dinosaurs from the Bible, and, his most powerful
weapon, news that Ethan and Rory's late mother believed that dinosaurs
exist too, their uncle has them convinced. They journey to the Congo and
meet Shari, a missionary nurse, and her adopted daughter Maggie whose
passion for the plight of the Congolese people leaves Ethan instantly
smitten. Their dinosaur hunt leaves Ethan, Maggie and Rory separated
from their group, facing danger at every turn, and racing against the
clock to get medical help for a serious injury. In the end, they make
the discovery and sacrifice of a life time, the emotional gap between
the boys and their uncle is finally bridged, and Ethan learns that home
truly is where the heart is.
