Synopsis

UNRAVELING THE MYTH OF HISTORY ONE ARTIFACT HUNT AT A TIME

For Fans of Archaeology Adventure and Historical Thrillers

THE TROVE CHRONICLES SERIES

A long time ago, advanced civilizations flourished without chronic warfare, violence, enslavement, female subjugation, or tyrannical rulers. Artifact by artifact, dig site by dig site, continent by continent, a secret society called the Arkana is revealing the true picture of what humanity once was and what we might be again. Not everybody wants them to succeed.

Volume 1 - THE CRONE'S LEGACY

In the aftermath of the quest for the Sage Stone, the Arkana's field agents are sent to recover a mysterious relic hidden somewhere in Germany. What does their simple retrieval mission have to do with murder, mayhem, a Stone Age necropolis, a pagan coven, a combative high priestess, and a prince plotting a coup? What indeed.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Nancy Wikarski is a fugitive from academia. After earning her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago, she worked in corporate America for two decades before becoming a historical mystery author. Her books highlight unknown aspects of women's history and contain elements of magical realism. In her Arkana series, she foregrounds the latest archaeological discoveries about prepatriarchal cultures around the planet and weaves these facts into fictional artifact hunts. Her Gilded Age Chicago books depict the real issues of first-wave feminism while following the fictional adventures of two amateur sleuths. Both her series have been award-nominated and have ranked on bestseller lists.

The author is a member of Mystery Writers of America, the Society of Midland Authors, and has served as vice president of Sisters in Crime-Twin Cities and on the programming board of the Chicago chapter. Her short stories have appeared in Futures Magazine and DIME Anthology, while her book reviews and essays have been featured in Murder: Past Tense, Deadly Pleasures, and Mystery Readers Journal. She is currently writing an Arkana spinoff series called The Trove Chronicles that will continue to feature discoveries about global prepatriarchal cultures. More mysteries from the casebook of Gilded Age detectives Evangeline LeClair and Freddie Simpson are also in the works.
