Mix "DaVinci code", with "Tibetan Book of the Dead" with a bit of fantasy and you have "Under the Tree". A fantastic book.
"Under the Tree" takes one on a path of self discovey and helps to show how we are all interconnected and that life truly does have a purpose, if only to live each of our lives to the fullest.
I highly recommend this book to all those searching or questioning the path they have chosen and need a new perpective.

Under the Tree is a fun story that tracks the steps taken towards enlightment in a near-death experience. Easy to read and very clear, it tells how Ray Carte's encounter with Alice in a new dimension affects his past and his future. (Gotta love the names!)
Stone's explanation of the nature of life/afterlife is clear and well-delineated. The book is serious, but it leaves the reader feeling hopeful and eager to live life to its fullest.
