The Lady of Kissos
No Customer Reviews
Beneath the golden cliffs and sunlit shores of Cyprus, history refuses to stay buried. A relic from the past-The Lady of Kissos-holds secrets that span six thousand years, connecting two lives divided by time but bound by fate.
Ancient Kissos, 3500 BCE:
Nina, the daughter of the village chief, defies the rigid traditions that bind her. Gifted and passionate, she carves a statuette from limestone-a figure imbued with the essence of protection and rebellion: The Lady of Kissos. But when her father demands she marry a man of his choosing, Nina chooses another path. With Manoleus, the man she truly loves, she flees into the unknown. Yet the land beyond the village is treacherous-tribes at war, mercenaries preying on the weak, and the gods watching from the heavens. As she clutches her small goddess for strength, Nina will learn that fate demands a price for freedom.
Present Day:
Archaeologist Ari Saras arrives in the modern village of Kissos in search of a legendary statue of Aphrodite. Instead, his team uncovers something older-an enigmatic figurine, predating classical civilization. The Lady of Kissos. As Ari and his colleague Sophia race to preserve their find, they face resistance from locals who believe the artifact should remain buried, untouched. The discovery draws the attention of smugglers, corrupt investors, and those who see the Lady as more than stone-she is a warning. When the figurine vanishes under suspicious circumstances, Ari must navigate a tangled web of deception, danger, and betrayal to restore what was lost.
As the past and present intertwine, the story of Nina and Ari converges in ways neither could have foreseen. The Lady of Kissos was created to endure, to be found when the world was ready to remember her. But will she bring protection, or will she bring ruin?
