| book description |

A story of love, adventure, and politicsâ€”and two lives changed forever by Mexico and the monarch butterfly Samantha and George are about to launch into a sabbatical year in the quaint Mexican town of Oaxaca. For Samantha, their journey to this historic town is about fulfilling a lifelong dream; for George, it is an unsettling step into the unknown. As the couple embark on their adventure, a monarch butterfly begins its arduous migration south from the United States to Mexico . . . It is a challenging journeyâ€”a flight that requires remarkable endurance and a will to survive. Beneath Oaxacaâ€™s picturesque and serene veneerâ€”the 16th-century architecture, the nearby ruinsâ€”it is a town shaken to the core by political unrest. As the monarch butterfly makes its challenging journey south, political events threaten to change the town forever. Whatâ€™s more, personal events look like they will alter the paths of Samantha and George for good. Ruins masterfully captures the shadows and light of a troubled country steeped in history and culture, weaving together personal, political and natural dramas into a thrilling portrait of life south of the Rio Grande.
