The Amazon Jewel
"Float down the lazy Amazon River. Enjoy the creatures of nature, but don't get too comfortable. Hidden among the brush are the natives of the region who prefer to keep their identity and whereabouts a secret. Beware! You are an intruder."
Synopsis:
Deep in the jungle, along the Amazon River, resides a tribe of people. No one has ever been able to confirm their existence. They are there, just out of view.
Suddenly and without warning a darkness descends upon the land like no other. The clouds drop from the sky in one large swoop, black as coal, so dense you could cut it with a knife. An eerie presence can be felt, moving all about. Minutes later the mystery unfolds. There are creatures hiding among the trees, and they are out to get you. Creeping from tree to tree, exposed by the flashes of lightning, are the silent members of a frightening tribe called Zucomi. Nobody knows for certain, but it is assumed to be them.
Before the storm can end, four members of the expedition completely disappear. Left behind are two eleven-year-old youngsters, one boy and one girl. They had been overlooked, but not for long. Soon they are in for the fight of their lives.
Seventeen years pass before the mystery unravels. But will Michael (Dr. Paul Michael Stanley) and Jewel (Scarlet Jewel Blanton) be able to handle what lies beneath it? Secrets are all around them, yet there is love in the air if only they can survive. During a crisis it is discovered there is a doctor in the house. It is not what you think, but it helps.
With their world crumbling down around them, will the rescuers survive? Faced with becoming separated, now it is up to Michael to find the lost Jewel.
