I love exploring caves (with a guide!) and the cave on the
cover of PERIL, PASSION, PERU plays an important role in the story. But the
first Paleolithic cave I visited gave me an experience I’ll never forget. Deep
in the cave was a chamber covered with tiny drawings. I lingered there in
fascination, not realizing my tour group was leaving. Suddenly, I was in total
blackness—and the blackness deep in a cave is like no other blackness
imaginable. My heart pounding madly, I cried out, “Hey, I’m still here!” A German tourist in our group made his way
back with a lantern. He lifted it to my face and must have been grinning as he
said, “Ach, der Neandertaler…” ~ Eve Dew Crook
