Описание: From the author of "Multiple Exposure, "the second intriguing compelling ("Publishers Weekly") novel in the thrilling Sophie Medina mystery series that features a photojournalist as she races to find an international treasure before a murderer finds her.
When freelance photojournalist Sophie Medina finds Brother Kevin Boyle, a Franciscan friar and controversial environmentalist, dead in the magnificent gardens of a Washington, DC monastery, she is sure her friend was murdered. Shortly before he died, Kevin told Sophie he was being stalked, possibly because he uncovered a botanic discovery potentially worth millions of dollars. Left with few clues to his secret, Sophie is determined to figure out who killed Kevin.
Beginning with a key that leads to a priceless original seventeenth-century encyclopedia of plants, Sophie leaps into an international treasure hunt following a trail that begins in the US Capitol and eventually leads to London and the English countryside. Before long Sophie suspects Kevin s murderer may have been someone who knew him well. With time running out and a suspect list that includes the world s leading botanical experts and political royalty from both sides of the Atlantic, can Sophie solve the two-hundred-year-old mystery before Kevin s killer finds her?
A tale of greed and betrayal involving politicians, diplomats, European royalty, and a century-old monastery, "Ghost Image" is filled with political intrigue, history, and an international high-stakes race against a killer that will keep you guessing until the very last page." |
