Artemis Child: A Rain of Stars (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986887531)

Great wealth, Chariots, and Culture shock

Maria continues to live on the ancient hill peninsula. Her plans of purchasing a vacation home in Southern California were shattered due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

All is not lost-Maria has a backup plan.

As she adjusts her sails for new winds heading her way, Maria continues her Peloponnese adventures-uncovering clues and solving ancient mysteries, while at the same time coping with the local culture, that has its own set of strange going ons.

In 2009, an archeological excavation was initiated in the area after an lonian-style column base was discovered. The dig revealed ancient bath structures-however, due to some unexplained event it was soon halted and never resumed.

Maria's search for answers brings her face to face with an ancient secret: "A scandalous act perpetrated by the ancient Arcadians in an effort to reclaim the land of their gateway town."

PRAISE FOR THIS BOOK:

I was so captivated by Artemis Child: A Rain of Stars. The way you intertwine Maria's modern-day story with echoes of ancient Greece and the lingering mysteries beneath the Peloponnese is both evocative and beautifully layered. I was especially drawn to the archaeological thread, the Ionian-style column base and the halted dig, which gives the book such an alluring blend of history and suspense.

As someone who's always been fascinated by the intersection of past and present, from A Discovery of Witches to my latest novel, The Black Bird Oracle (https: //a.co/d/23u9BSO), I deeply admire how your work channels that same sense of continuity, where history seems to whisper just beneath the surface of daily life. You've created a world where curiosity becomes a form of courage, and I think readers feel that.
