    About this ebook

    Anna Katri Jensen is born into an isolated Scandinavian community, in rural North Idaho in the 1960's. Emotionally abandoned by her family, it is only the love of her Irish grandmother that sparks a faint flame in Anna's young soul. Then early one dark morning, Anna's grand never wakes up. When a tragic hunting accident takes the life of her younger brother, Anna withdraws even deeper into herself and away from the world.
    Escaping to Seattle, Anna puts herself through college, becomes a law clerk in a well-established law firm, and is lured into a mysterious game. Challenging her intellect on all levels, she pursues clues all over the world, competing with her savvy and gifted opponents. In order to survive this game, Anna has to utilize her inner strength, persistence, cleverness, humor and unknowingly transforms from a lost soul into an extraordinary woman.
    The twists and turns of this tale include intrigue, an intense - almost brutal love affair, the recognition of a cloaked soul mate, international travel, in-depth research into one of life's most formative mysteries and finally peace...the rewards of successful inner study.
    The last few chapters of this novel unwrap delightful surprises, and subtle suspense keeps pages turning long into the night. Enjoy.
