The Assassin Saint: Two True Stories - Ten Centuries Apart

By Jennifer Macera

Abby Holden changed with the sudden death of her parents. Once adventurous and fearless, she's now frozen in a cloud of fear, expecting death at every turn. Her only joy lies in her museum work, saving artifacts from decay. Nothing seems capable of lifting the fog-not her best friend, not her love of surfing, and especially not her self-centered slacker boyfriend. Searching for some way to escape the dread-filled fog that's settled over her, Abby makes an appointment with a past-life therapist. Under hypnosis, she finds herself in tenth-century Russia, a handmaiden to the beautiful, ruthless Princess Olga-a mass murderer and Russia's first canonized saint. A woman of action and purpose, Olga inspires Abby to come out of her shell and start living again. But as Abby faces the trauma of her past and present lives, she has to wonder: Are her regression sessions real, or is Olga a mental manifestation of her own adventurous, repressed self? "The Assassin Saint," Jennifer Macera's novel of self-discovery, time travel, and historic Russia, blurs the line between one woman's present and another's violent, dangerous past.
