Shadows On the Aegean (Hardcover)

Suzanne Frank, writing in the bestselling tradition of Diana Gabaldon and Mary Renault, stunned the literary world with her provocative portrayal of Egypt at the time of the Exodus in Reflections in the Nile. The Detroit Free Press called the sweeping, evocative story "an adventure you won't want to put down." And now the story continues in this lush, erotic, and meticulously researched novel. Here the fascinating characters of Reflections reemerge on a dazzling Aegean island called Aztlan-the fabled lost world of Atlantis-where a mystery older than time may be solved, and where a love more powerful than death lives on...

Shadows on the Aegean

Chloe Kingsley expected to wake up in 1997; instead, fate and a rip in the fabric of time-space are sending Chloe to a mysterious ancient culture, another woman's body, and an enormous test of her love for Cheftu the physician. In Aztlan, an advanced civilization set on a volcanic isle in the Aegean, Chloe becomes Sibylla, a prophetess about to enter the political arena and ceremonial bull rings of a dazzling, decadent kingdom.

Soon enmeshed in a royal power struggle and a contest to become the consort of Phoebus Apollo, a charismatic young prince, Chloe is threatened by palace schemes and deadly passions. Though her outward appearance is changed, undeniable love draws Chloe and Cheftu together again.

Visions of a terrifying catastrophe inspire Chloe and Cheftu to desperately try to save Aztlan from utter destruction. But already the rumblings of doom are shaking a glorious culture that created labyrinths and a new panoply of gods, as two lovers, sworn to be together for eternity, are torn apart by cruel rituals, twisted ambition...and heinous murder.

Shadows On The Aegean provides a stirring blend of finely drawn characters, authentic historic detail, and passion, while offering a fascinating theory about the real location and fate of Atlantis, a world renowned in legend, long searched for, long dreamed about, and never found...
