Description: Far out in the lonely Pacific Ocean, there is an island of mystery. The stone statues near the rocky shore stare out over the ever-changing and eternal sea. The people who carved them, and left them there, have vanished from the earth. The secrets of Rapa Nui lie deep and hidden. Over the wind-blown, warm, grass-covered ground, the islanders have a calm and settled life. Now, their peace is threatened. Their fragile world is about to be turned upside down.
