The Cloisters
Skrevet af Katy Hays. Paperback, fin stand. Engelsk tekst.
Ann Stilwell arrives in New York, hoping to spend the summer working at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Instead, she is assigned to the Cloisters, the Met's Gothic museum and garden renowned for its collection of medieval and Renaissance art.
Drawn into a small circle of charismatic, but enigmatic researchers, Ann is happy to indulge some of their more outlandish theories, including those of the museums' curator who is fixated on tarot and the possibility of divination.
But then she discovers a mysterious, once believed lost deck of fifteenth century Italian tarot cards and finds herself playing a dangerous game of toxic friendship and unbridled ambition.
As things begin to spiral out of control, the modern and the arcane collide in this thrillingly told tale of obsession and the ruthless pursuit of power.
