The Fire In Their Eyes

Beschreibung

***Winner: NYC Big Book Award 2025*** ***Longlisted: Chanticleer Global Thriller Award 2025*** "Arcing back and forth through time, The Fire In Their Eyes is a fast moving, thrilling and absorbing read, and a worthy sequel to the excellent Bone Lines. At its heart lie questions about the nature of humanity, knowledge, information and misinformation, making it very much a novel for our time." Jane Johnson, renowned author and editor "An engrossing, urgent, polyphonic novel about the connections between the planet's deep past and our present unstable, unpredictable world, driven by a memorable cast of characters. A joy to read." Jude Cook, novelist, literary critic and prize judge An ancient cave newly unearthed in Yemen. A scientific research facility in the Norwegian Arctic. A fertile valley, home to an isolated tribe in prehistoric Kenya. In book two of The Children of Sarah series, Dr Eloise Kluft is wrenched from her new-found happiness to join the battle against an emerging biological threat. In a distant era, an ageing shaman must pit her hard hard-earned wisdom and the gifts of her bloodline against the terrifying dangers she has foreseen for her family. Looking to an uncertain future, a hopeful young couple navigate the fraught path to parenthood in a world where little makes sense but the courage to love. The Fire in Their Eyes follows characters first encountered in Bone Lines, as they negotiate life's risks and joys... and as the heritage of our remarkable human journey is passed along.

Autor

Born in Hong Kong to a pair of Liverpudlians (and something of a nomad ever since) Stephanie now lives on a cliff in Cornwall, in deep gratitude for her coastal perch. Before returning to her first love of writing fiction, Stephanie spent many years pursuing alternative forms of storytelling, from stage to screen and media to marketing. Meanwhile, an enduring love affair with words has led her down many a wormhole on the written page. Drawn to what connects rather than separates, Stephanie is fascinated by the spaces between absolutes and opposites, between science and spirituality, nature and culture. This lifelong curiosity (and occasional conflict) has been channelled into her debut novel, Bone Lines, a Kindle bestseller, and its follow-up, The Fire in Their Eyes, book two in The Children of Sarah series. Stephanie also writes short stories, such as Human Error and Entropy published in Breakthrough Books' Taking Liberties and Order and Chaos anthologies respectively, and The Right Kind of Medicine for Sunshine Superhighway from J Henge. Various other works in progress keep her busy with authorly procrastination.
