This is a story about Charlie, a young American teacher who went to the Philippines in the beginning of the 1900s, armed with his love of teaching, inspired by his own thirst for adventure, and emboldened by Americas victory over its wars against Spain.
What he found was far greater than he had wished for. His adventure leads him to a quick rise in his career, but he must persevere against overwhelming odds. His soaring career brought him face to face with the horrors of death in the hands of suicide warriors.
Destiny shoves him into an encounter with Asdahlia who saves him and brings him to her world full of magic, which adds a dimension to Charlies adventure that is too taboo that he fears it might cost him his career. Charlies sense of duty to serve his countrys interest in this part of the world stands in the way between them.
Asdahlia has to make a quick decision. If she takes the chance and follow Charlie, then she might live her ultimate dream: a life away from Skeleton Island.
