John Eyre

A traumatic incident at sea cuts short John Eyre's career as an oil rig diver and his romance with Rachel.
 
Big, disfigured and psychically sensitive, John roams Central America, where he is beguiled by Maximon, a trickster god. 

When the mask confining the god is stolen and a village asks John to find their protective spirit, he will embark on the riskiest of adventures.
 
His allies are a reluctant Rachel, fellow lodgers from a London guest house, and a Guatemalan girl with a unique jade ball.
 
As unearthly powers, not least Maximon himself, are awakened by a quest far greater than they realize, John will need the help he can get.
