Book of Eve

Beatrice is the convent`s librarian. For years, she has shunned the company of her sisters, finding solace only with her manuscripts. Then, one carnival night, two women, bleeding and stricken, are abandoned outside the convent`s walls. Moments from death, one of them presses something into Beatrice`s hands: a bewitching book whose pages have a dangerous life of their own. But men of the faith want the book destroyed, and a zealous preacher has tracked it to her door. Her sisters` lives - or her obsession. Beatrice must decide. The book`s voice is growing stronger. An ancient power uncoils. Will she dare to listen?
