The content:
Helen Hamilton has spent her entire sixteen years trying to hide how different she is—no easy task on an island as small and sheltered as Nantucket. And it's getting harder. Nightmares of a desperate desert journey have Helen waking parched, only to find her sheets damaged by dirt and dust. At school she's haunted by hallucinations of three women weeping tears of blood . . . and when Helen first crosses paths with Lucas Delos, she has no way of knowing they're destined to play the leading roles in a tragedy the Fates insist on repeating throughout history.
As Helen unlocks the secrets of her ancestry, she realizes that some myths are more than just legend. But even demigod powers might not be enough to defy the forces that are both drawing her and Lucas together—and trying to tear them apart.
It is a great book with lovely characters and an exciting and romantic story. As you may have noticed, the greek mythology plays a great part in it.
Who of you knows the book? And who of you loves as much as I do?
And - of course - which one of these is your favourite cover? ;)
1. German one
2. American
3.Spanish version
4. Swedish
5. British
6.Catalanian one
7.Portuguese one
8.Serbian one
I like nearly all of them - but the Catalanian and American ones are most beautiful, because the dresses of the women are soooo ... I just love them!
The German one is great, too, because it is so different than the others, but it totally fits to the book and the main character Helen! :)
