First translated novel by the author of “Dracula”—about foreknowledge, treasures, and love.
A young Englishman, Archibald Hunter, arrives in a quiet corner of Scotland where he has been before. On his very first evening, an old woman appears and claims that he has the gift of prophecy. Archibald doesn’t take his new acquaintance seriously until she foresees several deaths. The young man is frightened—he doesn’t know that even this terrible gift could be useful to him. Dangerous adventures await him: searching for treasures, deciphering a code, and rescuing his beloved from the trap set by kidnappers.
A novel about love, honor, and valor continues the series “Bookmate Translations”—a joint project with “Signed Editions” and the “Brusnikin Workshop.”
