Fifteen Postcards: Old Curiosity Shop Series

Autor Kirsten Mckenzie
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 iul 2019
History shapes those who travel through it Following the unexplained disappearance of her parents, and to save the antiques store she has inherited from ruin, Sarah Lester takes on a deceased estate. A jumbled collection of vintage postcards then lead Sarah on a journey through time. Unprepared for the stories these postcards weave about their reclusive former owner, they complicate Sarah's life in unimaginable ways, transporting her to Victorian London, colonial New Zealand and to the British Raj in India. Traversing three continents and two centuries, filled with murders and mysteries, the past draws Sarah into the enigma which could solve her parents' disappearance; forcing her to question if she should stay or go. An impossible question to answer the longer she stays in the past. "Part time travel, part historical, and part antique review. Sarah's adventures are well researched and entertainingly written. This is a very striking debut novel." -Historical Novel Society

For years Kirsten McKenzie worked in her family's antique store, where she went from selling postcards in the corner, to selling Royal Worcester vases and seventeenth century silverware. She also worked for fourteen years as a Customs Officer in both New Zealand and England, fighting international crime. Kirsten's time slip series - The Old Curiosity Shop series, has been described as The Time Travellers Wife meets The Far Pavilions. Her bestselling gothic thriller Painted was released in 2017.

Kirsten can usually be found procrastinating on Twitter under the handle @kiwimrsmac.
