Condición: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 260 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | In the summer of 1888 King George I of Greece is preparing to celebrate his Silver Jubilee in Athens. Simultaneously, a team of archaeologists from Cambridge University departs for Greece in a ship laden with equipment to boost the recently founded British School, cheerfully unaware of the dangers ahead. Kate is a young classical scholar who pulled some strings to secure her place on the expedition. As she can read and translate ancient Greek and is qualified for the role, but her real motive was to get closer to the expedition leader who she met when she was a young girl, and has been infatuated with ever since. The ship carrying the archaeologists is full of well-heeled de¿butantes, dignitaries and dilettantes, eager to participate in the jubilee celebrations, which are the highlight of their social calendar. Intrigue and rumours swirl like mist amongst the excited passengers, who spend their time socialising and gossiping, blissfully ignorant of the fact that they are heading towards a dangerous political situation developing in the Balkans as the rival empires of Russia, Britain, Greece, Austria-Hungary and the Ottomans compete for political power. Abruptly the expedition takes an unexpected turn when Kate realises that secret missions, treasure-hunters, mysterious sects, a would-be assassin and treason could conspire to deprive her of the man she has always loved.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - After establishing the British School of Athens, Andrew and Kate were invited to celebrate Christmas and Diana's wedding with the rich and eccentric Lord Tolemache - an antiquarian researcher whose astronomical theory would ultimately place Stonehenge as a great enigma of our civilization. Such an event, though, would be attended by eminent scientists not satisfied with the attention and projection that the monument could raise, which certainly would divert future scientific investments - they would spare nothing and no one to see such a project fail. Meanwhile, before Kate's departure from Greece, the historian will have two mysterious encounters: from one she will receive an unexpected chest containing notes and research on the origin of Apollo's myth, pointing for a connection with the civilization of the Hyperboreans, mentioned by Herodotus and other eminent Greeks; the next encounter will be with the oracle of an old Greek woman foreseeing the dangers that Kate would face in pursuing such a quest. Unaware that they were possibly following in the footsteps of Pythagoras 2,500 years ago, Andrew and Kate arranged to return to England, stopping off to see the ancient stone ruins in Malta, where Andrew's friend was excavating. Then, they will visit the mysterious monuments of the Morbihan in Brittany; Kate suspected that could be as well the path traced by the mysterious order she unexpected found herself part of. Soon the couple would start connecting the dots, uncovering a past and a link that even the Greeks and Britons have not known about. Although most of the guests were determined to have a fantastic celebration as part of their irresistible and seductive way of life, a sinister crime from the past intervened in Lord Tolemache's plans, exposing Kate to a frightening series of macabre events. Under the humorous spirit, jealousy and hatred would challenge the protagonists' journey, like driving forces united to fight for that knowledge to remain buried in the past, haunting their Christmas that winter 'On an island beyond the land of the Celts, where the north wind blows.'.
