The Golden Key of Gangotri

Looking for fragments of the miraculous beyond everyday living? Wondering how to live your life in the best possible way?

A self-help book in the guise of a mystery, Danon’s novel delivers a clear message: All people have the capacity to grow and change and become the individuals they were born to be. -Kirkus Reviews

Harley Green, a twenty-year-old student from New York is embarking on a perilous journey to search for her father, who disappeared in Gangotri, a sacred pilgrimage site in the Indian Himalayas. Following the arching course of the mighty Ganges, Harley’s plan is to reach the source of the river, at a remote ice cave in the high mountains.

The surprising insights that she collects along the way transform her adventure into a fascinating journey of self-discovery that is raising important questions about identity, regret, and finding deep purpose in every stage of our lives.

The inspiration for this novel came after the author completed the Himalayan Chota Char Dham - the most important pilgrimage sites in India, and from a deep knowledge of India and eastern religions.

Harley finds more answers than she might have anticipated, and readers will find themselves immersed in this fast-paced, meaningful story. -BlueInk Review
