Looking for a New Book to Read?

    Are you looking for a new book to read? If so, how about a true story? I got an advanced copy of Rod Jasmer’s new book, Without Explanation: A True Story of Love and Loss in the Jungle, and I think you’ll love it. 

A New Book of Love and Loss

    Rod and his wife set out on a trip that many of us can only dream about. A trek through the Guatemalan jungle, exploring Mayan ruins, watching the sunset from the top of an ancient temple, and so much more. Then, out of nowhere, their dream expedition turned into a nightmare. 

A Roller Coaster of Hope, Sadness and Despair

    When Rod’s wife Valerie, suddenly became ill in the middle of night, his world turned upside down. Imagine being in a foreign land, with a loved one that is inexplicably ill. Surrounded by people who speak different languages, and lack of resources that so many of us here in the United States take for granted. Through the heartbreak, and the twists and the turns, there were brave individuals who acted selflessly and left a lasting impression on Rod.  

A True Story

    Without Explanation is a true story. You will shed some tears, but you will smile too. It’s beautifully written and kept me turning page after page. I didn’t want to put the book down, because I NEEDED to know what happened next. I was captivated with every page I laid eyes upon, and I guarantee you will be too.
