You all know the star couple of the early 1990s, Griffin Moss and Sabine Strohem, but do you know Matthew Sedon and his lovely paramour, Isabella de Reims? Matthew and Isabella are caught in that can't-connect world Griffin and Sabine know all too well. Separated by continents, absence is making the heart turn passionate. Matthew struggles to keep his mind on archaeology dig in Egypt while Isabella attempts to study in France. Both encounter evil signs of nemesis Viktor Frolatti who seems bound and determined to keep them apart.
As always, Bantock's art is stunning. Bold colors, violent insinuations, and passionate designs decorate every postcard, letter, envelope and stamp exchanged. As always, the voyeuristic thrill of opening someone's mail cannot be ignored. (

Griffin and Sabine have disappeared and suddenly Sabine appears and asks for help from and archeologist in Egypt. This book is filled with danger and strange forces. Matthew and Isabella must unlock the secret world they have become a part of. (

So far this is my least favorite in the series, but Bantock's art is still interesting and the structure of the book is unique an still very imaginative in my opinion. (

I would give anything to have correspondents like these whose lives are sprinkled with a little mystical, archaeological adventure. You could stare at Bantock's pictures for hours on end. The lives of Isabella, Matthew, Griffin and Sabine make you long for a different reality. (

Isabella
I've always had a sense that there's another voice deep inside me who is wiser than I am - someone who instinctively understood way more than I ever could.

Frolatti’s little fires are merely a distraction from his real intent. He pursues the enigma, and unless we fully acknowledge that, it’s of little consequence which words are burnt and which spoken.
