A young man named Andre Roberson seeks answers to the mysteries of life and awaits the spiritual teachings of an old medicine man in the 2010 fiction by author William D. Hoy, titled "Undying" (published by Trafford Publishing). Hoy's book is receiving a renewed marketing plan this year, complete with a promotional book trailer and advertising in the form of a new email marketing campaign.
In this thrilling murder-mystery adventure, Andre seeks guidance from a medicine man named Jing Xian. Jing becomes a pivotal character throughout the novel, supporting Andre in his search for life's greater meaning. As Andre moves throughout his world he joins Jing's monastery, where he faces mental and physical obstacles to his ultimate goal of enlightenment. The Grand Master of the monastery provides Andre with a commendation to further pursue the path of illumination.
Along their travels across the Moroccan desert on camelback, Andre and Jing encounter assassins, a mysterious Pakistani caravan member and the murder of fellow caravan members at a Kasbah located deep in the desert dunes.
Readers will be left to question and decipher the paths the two men take from the monastery to Marrakesh to the desert and back again as the supernatural mystery of their journey unfolds.
"Is the possibility of living forever possible?" Hoy asks his readers. "Maybe. I love to travel and want the reader to feel the experience that I feel. Many things I have written about while visiting different countries are true. I write in short chapters, which makes it easier for the reader to get back into the book after they have put it down."
