Descriere City of Jasmine - Deanna Raybourn

\nNew York Times bestselling author of Killers of a Certain Age, Deanna Raybourn, delivers the story of one woman who embarks upon a journey to see the world--and ends up finding intrigue, danger and a love beyond all reason. \n \nFamed aviatrix Evangeline Starke never expected to see her husband, adventurer Gabriel Starke, ever again. They had been a golden couple, enjoying a whirlwind courtship amid the backdrop of a glittering social set in prewar London until his sudden death with the sinking of the Lusitania. Five years later, beginning to embrace life again, Evie embarks upon a flight around the world. In the midst of her triumphant tour, she is shocked to receive a mysterious--and recent--photograph of Gabriel, which brings her ambitious stunt to a screeching halt. \n \nWith her eccentric aunt Dove in tow, Evie tracks the source of the photo to the ancient City of Jasmine, Damascus. There she discovers that danger lurks at every turn, and at stake is a priceless relic, an artifact so valuable that criminals will stop at nothing to acquire it. Evie sets off across the desert to unearth the truth of Gabriel's disappearance and retrieve a relic straight from the pages of history. \n \nAlong the way, Evie must come to terms with the deception that parted her from Gabriel and the passion that will change her destiny forever... \n \nPreviously Published. \n
