Descrizione libro Audio Book (CD). Condizione: Good. Unabridged. Edgar Award Finalist for Best First Novel by an American AuthorCaptivating . . . has qualities any reader would wish for: adventure, romance, history and a vividly described exotic setting.-The Washington PostIn 1925 the international treasure-hunting scene is a mans world, and no one understands this better than Irene Blum, who is passed over for a coveted museum curatorship because she is a woman. Seeking to restore her reputation, she sets off from Seattle in search of a temple believed to house the lost history of Cambodias ancient Khmer civilization. But her quest to make the greatest archaeological discovery of the century soon becomes a quest for her familys secrets. Embracing the colorful and corrupt world of colonial Asia in the early 1900s, The Map of Lost Memories takes readers into a forgotten era where nothing is as it seems. As Irene travels through Shanghai's lawless back streets and Saigons opium-filled lanes, she joins forces with a Communist temple robber and an intriguing nightclub owner with a complicated past. What they bring to light deep within the humidity-soaked Cambodian jungle does more than change history. It ultimately solves the mysteries of their own lives.Praise for The Map of Lost MemoriesIn The Map of Lost Memories, Kim Fay draws us into a universe as exotic, intense, and historically detailed as the ancient artifacts her unforgettable heroine seeks.
