Sinossi

This novel is a sweeping, romantic journey set against the turbulent period of the Iranian Revolution of 1979 and the war with Iraq that followed. This is a tale of loss of identity as an Iranian royal deal with the new reality of revolution and its aftermath. A story full of emotion and twist, with sub-plots involving abuse by an unscrupulous uncle and a hypocritical mullah, revenge murder and noble suicide. This is not a story about war and revolution, it is about the resilience of people when their world crumbles. Above all it is a love story; the love for two men, but also love of family and country.

    No one called her Mud in Silicon Valley. There, she was Mae, a high-powered professional who had left her Kiowa roots behind a decade ago. But a cryptic voice message from her grandfather, James Sawpole, telling her to come home sounds so wrong that she catches the next plane to Oklahoma. She never expected to be plunged into a web of theft, betrayal, and murder. Mud discovers a tribe in disarray. Fracking is damaging their ancestral lands, Kiowa families are being forced to sell off their artifacts, and frackers have threatened to kill her grandfather over his water rights. When Mud and her cousin Denny discover her grandfather missing, accused of stealing the valuable Jefferson Peace medal from the tribe museum—and stumble across a body in his work room—Mud has no choice but to search for answers. Mud sets out into the Wildlife Refuge, determined to clear her grandfather's name and identify the killer. But she has no idea that she's about to embark on a vision quest that will involve deceit, greed, and a charging buffalo—or that a murderer is on her trail...

    Myrtle Reed may always be depended upon to write a story in which poetry, charm, tenderness and humor are combined into a clever and entertaining book. Her characters are delightful and she always displays a quaint humor of expression and a quiet feeling of pathos which give a touch of active realism to all her writings.In "A Spinner in the Sun" she tells an old-fashioned love story, of a veiled lady who lives in solitude and whose features her neighbors have never seen. There is a mystery at the heart of the book that throws over it the glamour of romance (Summary by Grosset & Dunlap publishers, 1913)

    Sophia Boralis is haunted by the death of her mother, her life consumed by a dark and dangerous depression that brings sinister shadows to life in her mirrors. After a desperate suicide attempt, she finds herself under the care of Harper, a psychiatrist with an almost otherworldly presence, at a mental health hospital.  
     In the hospital, Sophia meets Jeremy, a boyishly handsome man whose brokenness mirrors her own.  Yet, Jeremy harbors deep suspicions about Harper and his true intentions. Harper offers Sophia and Jeremy a chance to confront their trauma through shadow work, inviting them to his secluded mental institution where he teaches Witchcraft for therapeutic means.  There, Harper reveals his own suspicions about Jeremy to Sophia, leaving her torn between her two men, not knowing who to trust or who to fear. 
    As Sophia delves into Harper’s world, she encounters her shadows, which are actually inner demons more formidable and supernatural than she ever imagined.  In a world where trust is fragile and reality is blurred, she must navigate her way to sanity, all while her inner demons claw their way to the surface… 
      And they want out...
