The Marionettist: A Novel

by Avye Andonellis

Overview

Ari Apostollis is all set. Her whole life she's relied on herself, and she's done well: at forty-two she finally had the baby she always wanted with her husband who loves her. But she can no longer go it alone after a rare antiquities dealer uncovers an ancient secret which forces Ari to choose between the life she's built and the life she was born to live. Laurie Locke is done settling for the life she settled for. Her elegant new friend offers to treat her to the lavish life she deserves. Deirdre Morrigan is not as well put together as she seems. When she shows up in the small New Hampshire town of Ashuelot Hollow, she harbors a wicked desire which could ruin them all.

Epilogue

Editorial Reviews

"It is a story of ... redemption, and the battle of partly broken people to forgive one another, themselves and to rise above the mundane to touch the divine. One final warning: Do *not* begin the last 10 chapters late in the evening.
You will not be able to put it down..."
- Dr. Avery Jenkins, author of Dark River
