Iluminacija

Iluminacija

Jill Gregory, Karen Tintori

Sjajilo je prema njoj poput malenog zlatnog jajeta optočenog lapis lazulijem, karnelijanom i jaspisom.

Natalie Landau, kustosica muzeja koja je specijalizirana za mezopotamske amajlije i magična vjerovanja primila je neobičan poklon od svoje sestre, Dane – ogrlicu s privjeskom s plavim okom. Simbol zaštite koji je poznat i uobičajen u cijelom svijetu, zlo oko, ima mističnu povijest koja ga povezuje s mnogim religijama. Kad je Natalie saznala da je Dana ubijena samo nekoliko sati nakon što joj je poslala poklon, počinje razmišljati da ova amajlija ima veze sa smrću njezine sestre. Dok pokušava otkriti porijeklo privjeska Natalie je uvučena u međunarodnu bitku između moćnih islamskih i kršćanskih vjerskih frakcija, gdje se svaka bori za Oko, koje je mnogo vrednije – i moćnije – od onoga što je ikad i mogla zamisliti.
