Beyond the Shadow Gate

Rome, the Eternal City: A seventeen-year-old girl stumbles onto a murder scene and falls head over heels in love with a rough guy. A young assassin plays a game with two mafia clans and pursues her very own goals. The ancient goddess Persephone observes everything through her silver ball and can finally no longer stop herself from interfering in the events of the human world. With fastpaced storytelling, Beate and Susanne Hanika lead the readers into a breathtaking adventure that doesn’t even stop at the gates of the underworld. Surprising, funny, magnificent – and romantic!
