PLEASE NOTE: This book may have an alternate cover. The following description is provided as a guide only and may contain text that doesn't specifically relate to this item. ...Readers were all raves when Susan Krinard burst on the scene with Prince of Wolves. Then she wrote the wonderful Prince of Dreams and guaranteed herself a legion of fans. This is her first time-travel and you won't be disappointed! As always, Susan plays with the familiar and makes it original. A deathbed promise sends Mac to Guatemala where she hopes to dispel a family curse. At the ruins in Tikkal she is transported back into time, where she must depend on her ancestor's enemy and former partner, Liam O'Shea, for aid. Liam proves to be the definition of refined masculinity and more than a savior to Mac. ......From Library Journal...In an effort to remove a family curse and humor her grandfather, MacKenzie Sinclair heads for the Guatamalan jungle to return an ancient amulet that her great-great grandfather, Peregrine Sinclair, had taken from the Mayan ruins of Tikal during one of his expeditions. She ends up being catapulted back in time and into the life of Liam O'Shea, Peregrine's partner and a man who never returned from the original expedition. Effective characterization propels the occasionally complex story (there is a small white-slavery subplot) from the steamy Central American jungles to the restrictive, glittering 1884 San Francisco social scene with all the grace and sensuality readers have come to expect from Krinard. Krinard has written a number of alternative reality romances and is especially known for her sensual, mystical depiction of werewolves (Prince of Shadows, Bantam, 1996). She lives in Concord, California. ... 1997 Inc.Susan Krinard
