'"How long is soon?" asked Imang. Ding's younger brother was wanting to know when the white missionary would return to visit them. Many of the Kayans at Long Nangah had questions that they wanted to ask this man about Jesus. But the Lord works in mysterious ways, and Ding's people were to learn much about the Jesus Way even without the missionary's help.

'An angry witchdoctor trying to turn the people back to following evil spirits, a flash flood, a wild boar hunt, and a very remarkable love potion are but a few of the exciting things to be found in the pages of this book making it hard for the reader to put it down' (Source: back cover).
