About Scepter of the Sun King: Trina Piper Thrillers Book 2
A relic recovered from the ashes of Notre Dame de Paris… A relic that could topple Europe… A relic worth killing for. Historian Trina Piper arrives in Paris on a research trip, only to find her doddering old mentor in handcuffs, accused of robbing the Louvre. With only a cryptic clue to guide her, she’s suddenly on the hunt for a mysterious scepter. And she’s not the only one. With a nefarious Russian hot on her heels, she finds herself racing across the Paris of Louis XIV, from the opulent Mazarin Library to the massive, maze-like gardens of Versailles. Against a backdrop of widespread political violence, she’s aided by two eccentric professors… and handsome Interpol agent Ulrik Stander. When a horrific terrorist attack threatens to fracture Europe, Trina realizes the scepter carries a dark secret—a secret Louis XIV himself once used to become Europe’s most powerful King. Now, a shadowy syndicate wants the scepter of the Sun King for themselves, and will stop at nothing to usher in a new European order… one in which the levers of power are sold to the highest bidder. They’ll kill anyone who gets in their way. And Trina is right in their crosshairs. From Cambridge to Paris… from Cyprus to Strasbourg… Trina Piper is back for another thrilling adventure!
