Hardback. Zustand: Good. "Eye of the Moon is a gothic mystery of the finest order, Eyes Wide Shut meets Agatha Christie." Johnny's legendary socialite Aunt Alice mysteriously died while reading the Egyptian Book of the Dead when he and Percy were ten. They have been kept in the dark about that night ever since. Twenty years later, they are reunited, along with family and guests, for a weekend house party at Rhinebeck, the sumptuous estate once owned by Alice. But Rhinebeck holds more than just childhood memories. From the family butler, they learn that Alice's story is far darker than anticipated, and will impact all their lives, particularly Percy's, before the weekend concludes. All who attend are ensnared in a surprising web of mystery, Egyptian occultism, sumptuous elegance, and intrigue, where family members, guests, and even the servants have their own agendas, and nothing is what it seems.

Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 460 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | While Percy's best friend and business partner lies in a coma, Percy has only days to figure out whether it was an accident or attempted murder before he loses everything. Percy gets a call that Johnny is in a coma from a car accident, but was it really attempted murder instead? Four suspects are invited to Rhinebeck for a long weekend to discover the truth, but as Raymond, the Dodge family chauffeur, points out, "If Johnny was targeted, then somebody was willing to kill him, and that somebody will be in your house.
