Overview

"End of the Spear" (矛尖的尽头) tells the compelling true story of Steve Saint, whose father, missionary pilot Nate Saint, was tragically speared to death by a remote Ecuadorian tribe when Steve was just five years old. As an adult, Steve builds a successful business career in the United States and never expects to return to the jungles of Ecuador. However, when the same tribe that killed his father reaches out for help, Steve, along with his wife and teenage children, decides to move back to the jungle. This poignant narrative unfolds as Steve uncovers long-buried secrets surrounding his father's murder, faces difficult choices, and finds himself navigating the complexities of two worlds. The book serves as a powerful continuation of the story that first captivated readers in the bestselling book "Through Gates of Splendor."
