📗 Libro en inglés THE CURSE OF PIETRO HOUDINI

Sometimes the truth lies in the things you cannot see In 1830 a young novice called Catherine Labouré was granted a vision of the Virgin Mary Nearly 200 years later Sister Anne is also waiting for a sign Which is why she accepts a mission to go to a tiny community on an island just off the coast of Brittany Her only companion there is a sceptical chain smoking older nun who just wants to be left in peace On the island she meets Hugo the son of a devout family who prefers to look for the meaning of life amid the stars Madenn a grandmother whose daughter was killed in a crash and who finds meaning in routine Isaac Madenn s grandson an otherworldly teenager who doesn t fit in but who befriends Hugo and Julia a sickly child If anyone needs a miracle it is her But it is not Sister Anne who receives a vision Instead it is Isaac who is found on a promontary transfixed unable to utter more than the words I see The event soon becomes headline news and the world descends on the small island opening old wounds and unleashing a chain of events none of them could have foreseen
