Produktbeschreibung

1587. Eleanor Dare, pregnant and hopeful, arrives on Roanoke Island, a New World paradise teeming with unfamiliar beauty. She chronicles the colony's journey, her elegant script capturing the vibrant landscape and the unsettling whispers of a land guarding its secrets.  But paradise soon darkens. Supplies dwindle, tensions with the native Algonquin rise, and the whispers intensify, speaking of strange rituals and a looming darkness. Eleanor, drawn to the wisdom of the Algonquin, finds herself transformed, forging an unexpected bond with Wanchese, a wise elder who sees in her a kindred spirit. Centuries later, Dr. Maya Ortiz, a historian obsessed with Roanoke's mysteries, unearths a silver locket inscribed "E.D."  The past ignites within her, blurring the lines between then and now.  Guided by unearthed artifacts and Eleanor's ghostly whispers, Maya pieces together a narrative that shatters the accepted story of the lost colony. A child's toy bearing both English and Algonquin markings, intertwined pottery shards, and skeletal remains bearing the marks of both cultures hint at a story far more complex than simple disappearance. Driven by a relentless need for truth, Maya's obsession jeopardizes her relationship with Liam, a pragmatic archaeologist who fears she's losing herself to the past. But Maya cannot stop. She is drawn deeper into the island's heart, into Eleanor's world, and toward a hidden cave where ancient Algonquin paintings reveal the colony's shocking fate. Within the cave's hushed depths, past and present collide. The paintings depict not a vanishing, but a transformation-a brutal, complex merging of cultures fueled by desperation and fear.  Alliance, betrayal, and violence intertwine, rewriting the narrative of Roanoke. Unearth the lost history of Roanoke Island. Discover a truth whispered across centuries.
