It is twenty years since he planted seven thousand trees in the Garden Of Dreams and not one has died. The Watchman's key that opened the door to the magical garden has been lost to time. Elise commands the Garden, accompanied by Aliya and Kahgahgee the raven. Lulach Thane of Moramor, Justin, Victor, Sam and Basir are joined by Wayne, Alim, Ziya, Ghazi and Sabih on their voyage of adventure and discovery, as they search for what they seek where land and water meet and separate.
A magical tale of dreams and hopes raised and dashed, of inspiration, laughter, music and imagination on the quest of the icosahedron that is the key to the Watchman's Garden.
Travels overland to India and the hospitality received in Pakistan inspired this story, which was written in a single sitting and worked on forty years later.
