✦ Synopsis


While visiting Venice, Nora and Peter Brandt, a high profile Hollywood couple, enter an exclusive boutique so that Nora can try a dress. She never returns from the dressing room. In this heart-pounding novel, Peter tracks her to Istanbul and begins his search. Nora, who has been delivered to a powerful collector of all things beautiful, must use her wits and her skills to survive.

The Marble Sea is the entrance to the Bosporus Straits, which flow through Istanbul to the Black Sea. The straits are the crossroads of the world, the link between East and West. The ancient city of Istanbul provides the backdrop for this fast paced tale of loss and desperation. Throughout the novel, we are taken on a journey from the dark streets of the ancient city of mystery to the gleaming palaces that line the shores of the Bosporus Straits. "The Marble Sea" is a race against time and impossible odds. Is Peter's love strong enough to survive the challenge? Will he find Nora alive?
