Summary

Who or what are glyphs? will be your first question, probably. They are records carved on stone by a lost people, in this case the Mayas of Central America, a race which achieved a civilization equal to that of the Egyptians, and thousands of years before them! In this story of Norton’s there is a little band of daring adventurers who, fascinated by the reading of rare glyphs, go halfway round the world in search of the hidden metropolis of the ancient Mayas.

    The addictive psychological thriller from top 50 bestselling author J A Baker! 
    A long-ago trauma and a family mystery may shed light on her troubled sleep—or pull her into the darkness once and for all . . . 
    As a child, Grace Cooper suffered from bouts of sleepwalking. Now, after the unexpected death of her husband, she’s moved back to Woodburn Cottage, her childhood home—and the sleepwalking returns. 
    Grace doesn’t know what she does in her sleep, but it’s stirring up dark memories that Grace would rather forget. Like the disappearance of her brother Simon as child and the tragic death of her father…

    Spurred on by these hazy dreamlike recollections, Grace becomes determined to find out what happened to Simon that fateful night.
