In June 1916 a young ship‑builder and aspiring aviator watches his sea voyage turn into chaos when a German torpedo strikes the liner he’s on. The explosion throws him into icy water, and he is rescued on a remote, windswept shore far from any familiar coastline. There he finds a water‑logged brass thermos containing a folded manuscript that whispers of a hidden pocket of the earth where time seems to have stopped.
The manuscript draws him into a secret valley where primeval jungles and colossal dinosaurs roam beneath a sun that never seems to set. Using his engineering know‑how and daring, he must navigate hostile terrain, confront strange tribes, and uncover the mystery of a civilization that vanished long before recorded history. Listeners are invited to share his awe‑filled trek through a world where past and present collide, and every step could reveal either wonder or peril.
