There comes a time in the lives of most when we question our true identity and purpose in life. The Final Mystery is the story of Jo Buchanan's exploration of the notion that our destiny is not set in stone and that we are all capable of creating the changes we wish for. At the age of fifty, Jo took a huge risk in selling her home to finance her dream of exploring the sacred sites of Egypt, camping on Native American reservations in the deserts of Arizona, partaking in ancient rituals with Mayan Indians in the jungles of Mexico and swimming with dolphins in the oceans of Hawaii. This completely changed her life. She discovered that in the end, no matter how far we may travel the earth searching for answers to the mystery of life, it's what we discover deep down inside ourselves that counts. In the words of Oscar Wilde, 'The final mystery is oneself'.
