When I Die is a unique novel that not only takes the reader back to
a time of strong individualism but also forward into the greatest
change the West would ever experience. It is the final journey from
one era to another, seen through the eyes of a strong, aging ranch
woman and her entourage of six old devoted cowboys. It's the last
Texas cattle drive up the Chisholm Trail, and the beginning of the
end of an endearing, unspoken love. When I Die is all this and much
more.

In the years immediately following World War I, a young
anthropologist named Jesse O'Keefe ventures into the Andean
backwoods to find a culture worthy of study. There he stumbles upon
the Rixtirra, a complex society fixated on locating a legendary
Mountain Made of Light that these people believe offers a sanctuary
from the modern world. Jesse soon finds himself caught up in this
culture's political and religious machinations and, worse yet, in
conflict with Forster Beckwith--an aristocratic interloper whose
presence further endangers Jesse's life. The ensuing adventures
have prompted some reviewers to call this book "the thinking
person's Indiana Jones"--a breathtaking "lost race" novel that is
also an allegory about the inner journey toward what matters most.
