The
Memorist
M.J. ROSE
M.J.
Rose, the bestselling author of the
highly acclaimed The Reincarnationist,
is back with the second spellbinding
tale in her new series.
THE
MEMORIST
follows the compelling adventures of a
memory expert, Meer Logan and her father
Jeremy - a Kabbalist, known as the
Jewish Indiana Jones - from New York
City to the ancient cobblestone streets
of Vienna as they attempt to learn the
meaning behind Meer’s hauntingly vivid
memories.
What they discover could reveal a
frighteningly powerful secret hidden for
generations by one of the greatest
composers of all time.
As a
child, Meer suffered from the dreads:
memories of another time and place
always accompanied by the faint strains
of elusive music. Now the dreads are
back. The past has reached out again in
the form of a strange letter that sets
her on a search to unlock the mystery of
who she once was.
With
each step she comes closer to
remembering the connections between a
clandestine reincarnationist society, a
lost flute linked to Ludwig van
Beethoven, and David Yalom, a journalist
who understands all too well how the
past affects the future.
David
knows loss firsthand - terrorism is a
reality that cost him his family. He's
seen every solution promised by security
experts around the world - and he's seen
every solution fail. Now in a concert
hall in Vienna, he plans to force the
world to understand the cost of those
failures in a single violent act. Those
who cannot remember the past are
condemned to repeat it.
Join Meer, Jeremy, and a compelling cast
in a chase that takes them to a tear-gas
filled Viennese auction house, dusty
museums, through ancient tunnels
underneath the city, and into hidden
passages deep within the walls of the
secret Memorist Society. Travel from one
century to another as Meer unravels the
mystery behind her own past lives.
