This book was inspired by the tenacious efforts of the handful of professional field archaeologists over the last few decades in the inhospitable barrens of Africa. Their discoveries of the ancient fossil records have advanced our knowledge  back millions of years. Bokuru is an archaeological mystery based in a remote region of East Africa.  The story is seen through James Henderson,  a young Chicago attorney, who is retained to go to Africa  to investigate the mysterious death of Dr. Richard Bronston. The world  famous archaeologist died at his remote excavation site. Dr. Bronston's daughter, Nancy, an executive officer at  the Chicago museum, is responsible  for Jim's selection to act as detective in spite of his lack of directly related experience. Neither Nancy, nor the museum staff  believe Dr. Bronston committed suicide as stated on the death certificate sent from Africa. Is  Jim's limited  experience as an amateur archaeologist and trial preparation attorney sufficient to solve the puzzle? The museum has sponsored  Dr. Bronston's excavation work and holds a million dollar life insurance policy to cover their funding. The policy excludes coverage if his death is suicide. On  the way to the airport Jim learns that the cause of  Dr. Bronston's death is not their only concern. Dr. Bronston  told no one what he found at his excavation. The museum must decide whether Nancy Bronston should complete her father's field work, or close the field camp.  Jim's assignment is suddenly expanded. He must learn what  was found along the ancient  bank of the  Bokuru River, at the location  the natives call the place of the ancient past. Jim flies to Africa where Nancy Bronston has  preceded him to attend her father's funeral.  He begins his African adventure unprepared for the twists and turns he will face on a journey into both modern and ancient death as well as  the origins of mankind. The story ends with  a surprise endin
