F. G. Cottam Knihy

    Tato autorka zkoumá, jak lze skrze psaní přenést čtenáře do jiných světů a oprostit je od všedních starostí. Během studií se hlouběji zabývala mechanikou románu a literárními teoriemi, jako je Hemingwayova teorie ledovce. Její tvorba, ovlivněná fascinací historií, často zahrnuje paranormální prvky, které umožňují minulosti dramaticky a přesvědčivě rezonovat v přítomnosti. Ačkoli si je vědoma možných nezdarů, autorka plně přijímá odpovědnost za svá díla, ať už jsou úspěšná, či nikoli.

      It only takes a couple of visits to convince Dr. Elizabeth Bancroft that Adam Hunter is not just having bad dreams. He’s a child possessed. His father is desperate: adamant that his son’s affliction is the result of a curse he incurred in the depths of the Amazon, where a badly misguided military operation ended in a terrifying and macabre encounter. There he met two women—one who placed the curse and the other with whom any hope of saving his son resides. Mark Hunter leaves the Scottish Highlands to beg help from the mysterious woman, leaving his son in the care of Elizabeth—who is about to discover there are equally dark secrets on their own doorstep. And in her blood . . .

But from whom?History professor Juliet Harrington is an authority on sixteenth-century mysticism and a long-time believer in the existence of the Almanac of Forbidden Wisdom, a potent spell-book legend insists was compiled in that period by a cabal of powerful occultists.
