The Testament

Description

THE CORE OF DARKNESS: TROY FELON WAS BUSY WRITING HIS WILL; HE IS RENOWNED, RICH BEYOND IMAGINATION, OLD AND VERY SHORT TEMPERED. HE IS SITTING IN HIS VIRGINIA BASED SPACIOUS, MODERN OFFICE. HIS DEATH IS LINGERING NEARBY; HE HAS ONLY A FEW HOURS IN HIS HANDS NOW. HE WANTS TO LEAVE MESSAGES FOR ALL, HIS CHILDREN, HIS DIVORCED WIFE, AND HIS COLLEAGUES; A MESSAGE WHICH WAS GOING TO CREATE HAVOC, WHICH WAS GOING TO BE A VERY COMPLICATED CASE IN THE COURTS. HE WAS GOING TO LEAVE EVERY SINGLE PENNY OF HIS HARD EARNED 11 BILLION DOLLARS ESTATE TO ONE RACHEL LANE, HIS HEIR HEREAFTER BUT UNKNOWN TO ALL. WHO WAS WORKING IN THE REMOTEST AREAS OF THE BRAZIL FORESTS, FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE ANCIENT TRIBES OVER THERE, FOR THE MISSIONARY WORK; NET OREILLE WAS JUST OUT OF THE REHABILITATION CENTER. HE HAD EARNED HIS NAME AND FAME WITH HIS CASES AGAINST THE IGNORANCE OF THE DOCTORS. BUT HIS ADDICTION WAS ADDING NEGATIVE POINTS TO HIS NAME, MAKING HIM FAMOUS OTHERWISE. HE WAS ASSIGNED THE DUTY OF FINDING RACHEL. ALL THE SO CALLED HEIRS OF TROY FELON WERE EAGER TO GET THEIR SHARE IN HIS ESTATE, LIKE VULTURES SEEKING THEIR PREY. NET REACHES THE INTERIORS OF THE BRAZIL, IN SEARCH OF RACHEL, A PLACE WHERE THERE WAS NO VALUE FOR MONEY, A FOREST SO DENSE WHERE A SINGLE WRONG STEP WOULD LEAD TO DEATH. RACHEL WAS A DOCTOR AND A MISSIONARY. SHE HAD SUFFERED A LOT, THROUGH FRIENDS AND THROUGH ENEMIES. SHE HAD A SURPRISE FOR ALL OF THEM...गाभा अंधाराचा अमेरिकेतल्या व्हर्जिनिया प्रांतातल्या, अत्याधुनिक, नावीन्यपूर्ण सजावटीच्या आपल्या छानदार ऑफिसमध्ये अमेरिकेतला एक मान्यवर, अतिश्रीमंत, पण अतिशय रागीट असा वृद्ध उद्योगपती, ट्रॉय फेलन, आपलं मृत्युपत्र लिहीत होता. त्याचा मृत्यू पुढे काही तासांवरच होता. त्याला त्याच्या मुलांना, त्याच्या सोडचिठ्ठ्या दिलेल्या बायकांना आणि जवळपासच्या बगलबच्च्यांना एक संदेश द्यायचा होता, की ज्यामुळे एक अत्यंत गुंतागुंतीचा खटला न्यायालयात उभा राहणार होता. कित्येकांच्या आयुष्याला कलाटणी मिळणार होती. कारण ट्रॉय फेलनच्या नवीन मृत्युपत्रात तो आपली अकरा बिलियन डॉलर्सची मिळकत ब्राझीलच्या अति दुर्गम अशा निबिड जंगलात राहून आदिवासींची सेवा आणि धर्मप्रसाराचे काम करणा-या अज्ञात अशा रॅचेल लेन नावाच्या एका वारसाला देऊन सर्वांना आश्चर्याचा धक्का देणार होता. व्यसनमुè
