Samantha Knox is back for another adventure in this 1920s female-driven mystery-adventure series!
Sam Knox’s second adventure takes her to the island of Crete, just off the
coast of Greece, where she discovers the ancient Snake Goddess’s golden girdle
in the depths of a cave shrine that has been buried for decades. After having
been belittled by her archaeology professor throughout her first college
semester, Sam knows this triumph will prove her worth in the field, but before
she can take credit for the find, the girdle is stolen and the island is hit
with a series of earthquakes that don’t feel quite geological.
Soon Sam, Bennett and Jo are embroiled in a wild hunt―one that takes them to
tiny island shops, a glamorous auction party and a near fiery death―to find the
girdle before someone can use it to raise an ancient goddess from her slumber.
The final battle features gryphons, a labyrinth, the minotaur of legend and
lots of snakes. Lots.
Reviews:
"Another action-packed, romance and mythology filled
mystery...Themes of wealth, power, and chauvinism are skillfully woven
throughout the story while readers are provided with a cast of characters they
will easily find themselves rooting for!"―School Library Connection
"Billed as the heir apparent to Indiana Jones, Samantha is a witty and
wise adventurer, and it feels as though Moke is building towards an eventual
greater purpose for her heroine."―Booklist
"Jenny Elder Moke has done it again! Witty banter, ancient mysteries,
thrilling action, and a mix of clever and dubious characters will keep you up
all night in book two of the Samantha Knox series. A fantastic
adventure!"―Jennifer Lynn Alvarez, author of Lies Like Wildfire
"Sam’s response to misogyny and classism propels the book’s action but
also, in the deft hands of the author, provides readers with insights into the
complexities of identity, self-awareness, and right action. While never
becoming preachy, the book also thoughtfully explores issues related to the
ethics of the acquisition and ownership of antiquities...Another satisfying
supernatural adventure featuring an intrepid solver of puzzles."―Kirkus
Reviews
“Ahead of her time and a force to be reckoned with, Samantha Knox is the female
Indiana Jones we've long been waiting for! You haven't lived until you've read
a Samantha Knox novel.”―Jen Calonita, New York Times best-selling author
of the A Twisted Tale series
