Carolyn Parkhurst Knihy
Carolyn Parkhurst je americká autorka, ktorej diela sa vyznačujú hlbokým vhľadom do ľudskej psychiky a zložitosti medziľudských vzťahov. Jej próza, často zasadená do napínavých alebo neobvyklých situácií, skúma témy straty, komunikácie a hľadania zmyslu. Parkhurstová majstrovsky buduje napätie a používa bohatý, obrazný jazyk, ktorý vtiahne čitateľov do vnútra svojich postáv. Jej romány sú zamyslením nad krehkosťou ľudskej existencie a nad tým, ako sa vyrovnávame s nepredvídateľnými životnými zvratmi.

What do a suburban mom, her troubled daughter, divorced brothers, former child stars, born-again Christians, and young millionaires have in common? They have all been selected to compete on LOST AND FOUND, the daring new reality show. In teams of two, they will race across the globe--from Egypt to England, from Japan to Sweden--to battle for a million-dollar prize. They must decipher encrypted clues, recover mysterious artifacts, and outwit their opponents to stay in play. Yet what started as a lark turns deadly serious as the number of players is whittled down, temptations beckon, and the bonds between partners strain and unravel. The question now is not only who will capture the final prize, but at what cost.
