Orphan Falls - Brown, J. Nell

. .

Résumé :
In Part Two of The Orphan Dreamer's thrilling adventure, a story that is a perfect read for fans of The Da Vinci Code and James Rollin's Sigma Force series, The Orphan Dreamer must embark on a dangerous adventure into her past and our future to save America . . . and the world. Daniela Rose Cavanaugh's family has called her the next Indiana Jones since she was twelve. Now, she's a nineteen-year-old medical student suffering from her first heartbreak. Later in the story, she's a thirty-five-year-old doctor. In all timelines, she's Earth's last Orphan Dreamer, the wielder of the Glass Tattoo. A time traveler destined to right wrongs. After the funeral of a childhood nemesis' mother, Daniela uncovers a modern-day warning hidden within the pages of an ancient religious text. This ominous sign has been in the sky for thousands of years-since the beginning of time and light. The ominous sign is the sun. On April 8, 2024, the sun will crisscross North America, drawing the last arm of the dark trajectory of two total solar eclipses that will have formed an X over North America. When the last arm of the X is formed, the Bat Creek Stone curse triggered by Daniela Rose's own ancestors will end America-and then the world. She must travel the world and across timelines to find lost relics and then solve the mysteries that will break the curse and save the world. If Daniela fails to satisfy the curse, Earth will stop spinning . . . but the oceans will not stop rotating at their previously synced rotational speed of 1,000 miles per hour. Tsunamis. Flood. Earthquakes will destroy Earth-the fate of destruction by the chaos that Nomed, a Watcher, has been waiting for since the beginning of time and after the fall of the dark angels. Orphan Falls: Running Wild and Free is a three-part story within the more extensive Orphan Dreamer epic series. This is Part Two.
