Produktbeschreibung
Vanessa, a freelance writer who grew up in Spain, is ? fleeing the pain of an unravelling relationship when she goes to her grandmother's house on Canada's east coast, near Oak Island. Her discovery of a 400-year-old diary written by a failed Spanish Dominican monk rekindles her obsession with an international, multi-million dollar treasure hunt that has drawn investors, including Franklin D. Roosevelt, from Canada, the United States, and Europe for more than two hundred years. Vanessa's arrival at a new solution to the mystery, by learning how to see beyond the barriers of reason, plunges her into an underworld from which there is no turning back. The rules that run the surface world do not apply.
Autorenporträt
Jane Bow grew up in Canada, the United States, Spain, England and Czechoslovakia. Her novels, ranging from true crime to mystery to love, explore the effect history's dramas have on our identity, whether we know about them or not. Cally's Way, published in 2014, interweaves Cally's story with that of her grandmother Callisto, who was a runner in the Cretan Resistance during the Germans' brutal World War II occupation of Greece. Kirkus called it "accomplished, lyrical... romantic but tough-minded." Cally's Way reached #2 on Edmonton's bestseller list and was invited to the U.K.'s Folkestone Book Festival. Jane's second novel, The Oak Island Affair, a 2008 Next Generation Indie Book Award finalist, was republished by Iguana in 2014. Her first novel, Dead and Living, was shortlisted for an Arthur Ellis Award.
