Description


Devastated by the brutal murder of his childhood friend at the hands of extremists, a young priest from a small Irish town is more certain about the collapse of his own species than his faith. To Father David Callaghan, the time bomb to doomsday is ticking fast as he accidentally stumbles across an article on the discovery of the most ancient humans on Earth―the San people of the Kalahari desert. Astounded by the scientific finding, he joins an anthropological and thrilling mission to Africa where he hopes to find out what went wrong in the human journey. Once in Namibia, he meets the acid-humored Andreas and the young free-spirited Marie. Amidst a mysterious murder and the chase by rhino poachers, David and the pair of Scandinavian anthropologists embark on a philosophical battle over human nature. Will Father Callaghan unearth the answer to what went wrong with the human saga? Will his faith be restored? Will an unlikely romance restrain him from returning to the priesthood? With an unexpected outcome, MUKUROB is a story about people's need to be true to themselves and how their life purpose ultimately conditions their choices.
