Prejudice. Love. Naivete. Deceit. The acquired qualities that define all people.

Leaving northern Minnesota and the moniker of the Little Captain behind him, Dr. Noah Garrett builds a life of success and happiness in Boston. But then in an instant, it is violently taken from him.

Ripped apart by tragedy and driven by vengeance, Noah soon finds himself inside the grand Teatro Amazonas in Manaus, Brazil. There, he collides with Sabella Almeida, a woman misled by circumstance and entrapped by naivete.

Initially, Noah and Sabella believe they are as immiscible as the Rio Negro and the SolimƵes at the meeting of the waters. This belief changes, however, when they discover they have a common connectionā€”a man marked by a slouched fedora.

Always cunning, Caubi Tomayo spins a manipulative web of secrets deep in the Amazon. Deceit is his forte. To Sabella, he is a protector and provider. To Noah, he is nothing more than a garish knickknack from a shadowbox.

Whether it be the iron mines of Minnesota or the rain forest of Brazil, we are all products from whence we comeā€”our provenance. In this thriller, Noah and Sabella must learn to see beyond the differences that drive us apart. Together, they must learn to see that we are all the same.

William Himango is a retired neurosurgeon who has traveled extensively. His love for the rain forest helped set the scene forĀ Provenance, his first novel. He also believes there is more truth in fiction than in nonfiction.

"William Himango is a writer's writer reminiscent of William Styron. Himango chooses each and every word with the precision of a neurosurgeonā€”his profession and lifelong vocation. With Provenance, he has sculpted a wonderful novel that takes us on an adventure from Minnesota to Boston to the steamy and dangerous Amazon River in Brazil. Come along for the journeyā€”and travel lightly." - Tommy Murray, author, Fathers, Sons, and the Holy Ghosts of Baseball
