Lost Pleiades

The Lost Pleiades : Seven Sisters and the Sibyls is a contemporary fantasy novel set in Italy. The novel incorporates Paganism, Catholicism/Christianity, magic and historical elements of the Italian region the novel takes place. "e;If the implication of knowing the truth means that we have to be someone other than who we are comfortable with, then so be it."e; Eli Tesani doesn't believe in faerie tales. A young realist living in the fantasy land of Los Angeles, she lives a predictable life, carefully maintaining the balance between family, friends, and her demanding dream job. When a mystery illness starts affecting her well-being, and her grandmother's declining health sends her on an urgent trip back to her native Italy, Eli is faced with a family secret that may be the missing link she desperately needs. But with a family who's unwilling to provide any logical answers, Eli is forced to pursue the truth on her own, and is met with much more than she bargains for. With an influx of religious mysteries, historical bombshells, a world of supernatural characters, and even a love interest that is more cryptic than the secrets she's fighting to uncover, Eli is forced to make a difficult decision: whether to go back to LA and live in ignorant bliss, or to possibly risk everything in order to pursue the truth that will change her and her family's lives, forever.
