Appartiene alle Serie
When Adriana, a brilliant young archaeologist, accepts a position at the Museum of Archaeology in her hometown of Santander, Spain, she never imagines that her new boss has lived through the history she can only study.Iago, the charismatic technical director of the museum, is more than ten thousand years old but appears to be only thirty-five. Iago and his family are longevos--people who never seem to age after reaching adulthood. The ancient family is divided: Iago's brother and sister seek the source of their longevity in hopes of creating more like themselves, while Iago and his father fear the repercussions of the true Fountain of Youth. A dangerous game of power and knowledge that has played out over eons becomes even more complicated when Adriana attracts both brothers' attention--and learns their secret. Filled with science, history, and passion, The Immortal Collection transports the reader through time and space, from the days of cavemen, through the Roaring Twenties, to the charming plazas of contemporary Spain. Ancient history meets cutting-edge research in this modern love story and sweeping historical saga. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Adriana, una joven y resuelta prehistoriadora, regresa a su Santander natal, contratada por el museo, dispuesta a aclarar el extraño suicidio de su madre, la psicóloga de cabecera de la alta sociedad cántabra, ocurrido quince años atrás.
Iago y Adriana chocan desde el primer momento, aunque entre ellos surge una intensa atracción que ambos intentan ignorar. Pero poco imaginará Adriana que la muerte de su madre tuvo mucho que ver con lo que le ocurrió a “la vieja familia” en el pasado y obligó a Iago a entrar en la investigación del gen longevo. Cuando descubran la cruda realidad y reaccionen, las consecuencias de sus actos les dejarán marcados para siempre.
