The Shaman in Stilettos

By Anna Hunt

When celebrity journalist Anna Hunt takes a break from her glamorous high-powered and fast-paced job to live in Peru for three months none of her friends take her seriously. A burn-the-candle-at-both-ends 29-year-old with a love of stilettos chocolate fast cars and Sauvignon Blanc she seems to have it all including a wealthy boyfriend and a comfortable pad in Marylebone. How will she manage in a Third World country?

Anna's quest takes her from the wilderness of the Amazon jungle where she drinks ayahuasca one of the most mysterious and potent hallucinogens known to man to a passionate affair with Maximo Morales a disarmingly seductive and charismatic shaman who offers her the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become his apprentice. Anna embarks on what is to be an utterly exhilarating life-changing journey of mysterious rituals and burning passion. Will she find the fulfilment and inner peace she craves? And how will she bridge her two worlds and bring the ancient healing arts home to 21st century London?
