Kristalna lubanja

Kristalna lubanja

Manda Scott

An ancient prophecy says that if the thirteen skulls are not reunited, the world will end on December 21, 2012.

A 16th-century scientist, Cedric Owen, the last Keeper of one of the skulls, died to keep its secret. Almost five centuries later, newlyweds Stella Cody and Kit O'Connor will decipher Owen's code, face the prophecy and begin the search for the hidden skull, entangled in a battle between the guardians of the skulls and those determined to destroy them and thus the world bring to an end. Stella and Kit's efforts to prevent the coming apocalypse will turn into a terrifying, deadly, fateful fight between good and evil, but also a fight against time that is inexorably (and quickly) running out until December 21st... *** Manda Scott, one of the most prominent British author of a crime novel, in her novel The Crystal Skull will mix adventure, supernatural phenomenon, ancient civilization and cryptography to create a tense combination of history, myth and science. From Mayan secrets, through the British court in the 16th century, to a terrifying prophecy about the end of the world, this thriller will encourage readers to anticipate the date that the mysterious and advanced Mayan civilization marked as the end of a time cycle, and with it the world as we know it.
