As a young man Jon Charles Harris sought guidance for his life by fasting for four days in the spiritual silence of mountains, searching for a sign. Although he did not know it then, he did find his answer when a butterfly visited him.

He preferred a visit from a wolf but he got a butterfly; the butterfly talked but Harris did not understand. Little did he know what this visit really meant and how butterflies would become important to him, and in that moment, unbeknownst to him, his life started to change.

And now, with Who Murdered Butterfly Dancer, J Charles Harris offers readers a chance to see what Butterfly Dancer taught Harris about what the butterfly said that Harris did not understand. A reader may see that what is often taught as incorruptible knowledge that should be enforced with perpetual tradition is not what Love is giving us a chance to do: to become the intention of the creation you were made to be.

Just as young Harris himself changed when Butterfly Dancer visited him and asked him to understand "love me as I am," Or a reader may be trying to express their true self within a community they fear will reject them, or, on the other side of that coin, may be trying to accept and have compassion for a member of their community they did not previously embrace. Those who challenge themselves to read this book, who dare themselves to consider possibilities outside what they have known, will discover what all explorers find when they persist: treasure.
