DESCRIPTION:
"Amazingly good read!" according to Mandy Walkden-Brown (QLD, AUS). A great mix of action, time travel and a touch of romance.A vast array of delightful characters from ballerinas and Inn owners to Hindu and Chinese mystics, from a young street waif to Benjamin Franklin, all of whom are painted with bold strokes.Conspiracy and intrigue abound. Spies and assassins are on the loose.All in all, it's an extremely well written and edited, wholly compelling read.Highly recommended.. I started it and didn't stop until I finished!! After I finished this book the first thing I did was come to write a review about it because I thought it was just absolutely fantastic! Not only did this book have an unpredictable and exciting plot, but it is also extremely well written. Too often books sacrifice one for the other. This is the type of book that is completely engrossing and you read from start to finish in one sitting! The whole book is really a load of fun and transports you to Odette's world! The historical portion of the book is obviously well researc. Julie M. Hamilton said Great literature with a real message.. I was completely sucked in to this novel. There are obvious social undertones woven in to the story that made me care about the ending while enjoying a great story. I can't wait to read more from this author.
