A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A vortex of evil, passion, suspense and beautiful writing.Spanning three generations, four continents and two world wars, The Shadow of the Hawk brings together Kathleen and Hawk, each from different generations, backgrounds and outlooks. Through his naiveté and her patience and wisdom, they meet, not in his world, not in hers, but in a place almost mystical, unreal.Around them revolve: Cope the moonshiner, evil incarnate; Toad, nobility personified; Miss Jesse, on the edge of madness; Jonathan and Judilon, Kathleen's children, both older than their mother's lover; Adam and Ruth, a frightened black couple stranded in an isolated white settlement in 1949; Robert and Raven Tallchief, the Indians who watch with lust which moves into unfortunate action; and 7, a sturdy man who tries to stop madness in two different worlds at one time.In a pond on the mountain above them floats a body stabbed many times, and someone unknown is making cyanide that will eventually take its toll.Faustine and Logan form the strangest love affair in all recorded literature, bringing about the death of a hidden community.Every page drives you relentlessly onward with another question that must be answered.This book is unstoppable.
