Born of Illusion: Born of Deception | Teri Brown
Expected 2014 from Balzer & Bray/Harperteen
Budding illusionist Anna Van Housen is on top of the world: after scoring a spot on a prestigious European vaudeville tour, she has moved to London to chase her dream and to join an underground society for people like her with psychic abilities. Along with her handsome beau, Cole Archer, Anna is prepared to take the city by storm.
But
when Anna arrives in London, she finds the group in turmoil. Sensitives are
disappearing and, without a suspect, the group’s members are turning on one
another. Could the kidnapper be someone within the society itself—or has the
nefarious Dr. Boyle followed them to London?
As
Cole and Anna begin to unravel the case and secrets about the society are
revealed, they find themselves at odds, their plans for romance in London having
vanished. Her life in danger and her relationship fizzling, can Anna find a way
to track down the killer before he makes her his next victim—or will she have to
pay the ultimate price for her powers?
Set
in Jazz-Age London, this alluring sequel to Born of Illusion comes alive with
sparkling romance, deadly intrigue, and daring magic.
About the author:
I’m
not sure who to tell you about here because I’m actually two people rolled into
one. As a responsible mother of teens, I show one persona to the world. That
person is driven, conservative and level headed. But the other part of me just
never grew up. She is rebellious, impulsive and curious.
It’s
hard being both these people. They’re often at odds.
The
mother part of me knows I should put a cap on how many animals we take in. The
teen part of me wants to save them all. We have five cats and two dogs. Who do
you think is winning?
Even
now. The mother part wants to make a meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and a tossed
salad. The teen part wants to order a pizza, work on my website and check my
Facebook.
Luckily,
though my two halves don’t always agree, both of us live happily in Portland,
Oregon, with a husband and too many animals. And we both love to write and write
and write..
