Elevation

High in a Himalayan cave, Terma Den Sherab, a hardcore Tibetan-American former football star turned mountain search-and-rescue ace, and his lover, Calieze Moss, a talented Roma-American artist and nature cinematographer, make an extraordinary discovery. Together-and only together-they can boost the weakened immunity to a virus that catalyzes evil in the souls of potential killers thousands of miles away. In "ELEVATION: The Cave Logs of New Hale Tibet," Den and Calieze recount their harrowing and exhilarating discoveries as they become caught up in life-or-death struggles both far away and too close to home. Rooted in Tibet with tendrils reaching across India, the Colorado Rockies, a Central American jungle, the streets of New York and San Francisco, and elsewhere around the globe, their riveting saga cross-pollinates sensual romance with experimental science and Asian and Western spirituality, reshaping innumerable lives including their own, the arcs of contemporary world history, and perhaps evolution itself.
