In Which The Blogger Attempts To Explain It All So Far
And an intricately woven storyline it is.
Yesterday’s post gave a quick overview of the first book in the series, The Skin Map. Today I’ll try to get you into The Bone House without any spoilers revealed.
When we last left our intrepid Kit Livingstone, he was barely saved from a gruesome death in an already occupied tomb. His girlfriend Mina, having worked some kinks out of this ley travel business from her base in 17th century Prague, points him in the direction (dimension?) of Dr. Thomas Young, an incredible thinker, to find an artifact in Egypt.
Meanwhile, a gentleman by the name of Douglas Flinders-Petrie is working his way to deciphering another special item he “acquired,” posing as an Irish monk in the Middle Ages. His distant relative Arthur Flinders-Petrie is also working to save something precious, this time in ancient Italy.
As traveling along ley lines moves a person through both time and place into different dimensions, the journey hops back and forth, bringing perspective to the villanous Lord Burliegh and the mysterious Lady Fayth.
The various threads, at times seemingly random and unconnected, begin to weave a significant tale as Kit stumbles into the secret of the Bone House.
If this seems somewhat vague, this is in part to protect surprises from the first book. The other part is that this is the story – a mystery with many parts. In order to understand, you will have to dive in. I will tell you about the dive in tomorrow’s post.
In the meantime, Becky Miller diligently keeps up with all of the posts for this blog tour, so check out my partners in crime for more on this intriguing series.
