Expected Publication Date: December 2013 by Spence City
It’s
been four years since Chris Arlin graduated with a degree that most
people think she made up, and she’s still no closer to scraping up
funding for her research into rare plants. Instead, she’s stacking
shelves at the campus library, until a suspiciously well-dressed man
offers her a lucrative position on a scientific expedition.
For Chris, the problem isn’t the fact that they’re searching for the Biblical Tree of Life. Nor is it the fact that most of the individuals on the expedition seem to be fashionably lethal mercenaries. The problem is that the mission is being backed by SinaCorp, the corporation responsible for a similar, failed expedition on which her mother died eleven years ago.
However, when Chris’s father is unexpectedly diagnosed with inoperable cancer, Chris sees only one solution. Vowing to find the Tree of Life before SinaCorp’s mercenaries, Chris recruits Luke, an antisocial campus priest undergoing a crisis of faith. Together, they embark on a desperate race to find Eden. However, as the hunt intensifies, Chris discovers growing evidence of her mother’s strange behaviour before her death, and she begins to realise that SinaCorp isn’t the only one with secrets they want to stay buried.

interesanta. coperta ma duce putin cu gandul la un puzzle
Ohoo mai e pana apare.Dar nu stiu de ce(awkward) cum m-am uitat la ea cum m-a atras:))Si citind si descrierea mi-a placut si mai mult.Pare putin imbarligata,desi pare simpla actiunea.Subiectul este unul nou pentru mine,caci nu am mai citit o astfel de carte pana acum;-?.Deci da,mi-ar placea sa o citesc
si mie imi place coperta , ma duce cu gandul la un mozaic :* e foarte frumos realizata ..copacul acela singuratic, cheia ce deschide diverse porti spre alte lumi.dar are putin sange acea cheie sau cel putin asa pare ,iar sarpele ..da e genial..sunt draguti de la distanta , nu cred ca mi-ar face placere sa vad vreunul in viata reala sisa fie si flamand;)
Cat despre subiectul cartii, este unul nou pentru mine si mi-ar face placere sa o citesc..astept cu nerabdare sa apara ;)) dar dupa cum se vede mai avem de asteptat ceva timp :)
sa sti ca nici eu nu prea am intalnit carti cu o astfel de poveste. sunt intrigata
dar de asemenea si putin curioasa ...trebuie sa recunosc...
curios e putin spus sper sa apara si la noi, dar slabe sanse
poate la Rao..dar nu prea cred, ei merg pe genul acesta de carti..sa vedem .cine stie ce surprize ne vor pregatii editurile in acest an ;)sau la anu..
anul asta zic eu caci abia a inceput
sper..ar fi cel mai frumos cadou posibil dar cine stie
ar fi frumos. sper sa ne asculte rugamintile
da, doar sa reuseasca sa le vada careva care are vreo legatura cu o editura sau ceva
imi place coperta,si imi place mult de tot ca se afla acolo jos si sarpele,cheia si sangele,o fi insemand ceva toate astea.
