The Custodians

Beschreibung

Creepy thriller set in SW France. When holiday-makers Catherine and Tom Grayston disappear in Rousinac, two detectives David Frankel and James Harrison set off to find out what happened. There's friction from the get-go. David's methodical approach clashes with James's eccentric intuition, but their skills eventually combine as things get weirder. The duo dig into the town's hidden past, but a supernatural presence dogs their every move. Soon, a conspiracy emerges from Rousinac's underground tunnels dating back to WW2. A tight-lipped community stands in the way of truth. How far down the rabbit hole will the detectives have to go before they lose their sanity or even worse? The Custodians is a dark psychological thriller, a page-turner with twisting timelines. Rousinac's dark secret will keep you on the edge of your seat

The book was based upon Jacalyn's experiences working for Manhattan's 1% and was reviewed by The New York Times, in the Wealth Matters weekly column. Through her work as an artist Jacalyn self-sponsored an immigration path, becoming a US citizen in 2017, as "an alien ofextraordinary ability." In 2018 Jacalyn relocated to SW France to realize a long-held dream of writing fulltime. Along with her partner Kate, she began to renovate an 18th Century farmhouse and the land about it. During this time she began two novels: The Custodians and Wall Street Diva as well as non-fiction projects. During the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, Jacalyn continued to write and all book projects were completed in the Fall of 2022.
