Sinopsis: Una trapecista incomparable que vive
de volar está a punto de chocar duramente contra el suelo.
Amandine
Sand camina una cuerda floja entre dos vidas, en problemas por un secreto
mortal. Ella es un "leopardo", uno de los seres humanos manchados
erróneamente acusados de ser portador de la peste.
Leopardos como ella son cazados por los fanáticos para proteger su colonia
extraterrestre del azote de la enfermedad. A pesar de esta amenaza, Amandine
pasa sus días guiando a otros leopardos a un refugio subterráneo a cargo de los
pacifistas. Por la noche, con sus propias manchas ocultos, se eleva en el aire,
el único lugar en el que esta extraordinaria artista se siente libre y
gloriosamente viva.
Cuando
la persecución de los leopardos estalla en violencia generalizada, los
buscadores exigen más de su tiempo. Pero su circo se tambalea hacia la
bancarrota y también le necesitan desesperadamente. No tiene tiempo para
respirar ... y luego se encuentra con un extraño que la deja sin aliento. Y ese
podría ser el mayor riesgo de todos. Si pone su confianza en alguien que no
debe y es desenmascarada, todo por lo que ha luchado podría desmoronarse.
En
su hora más oscura, Amandine debe recurrir a todo lo que ha aprendido en el
circo y de los buscadores de paz para llevar la paz a una sociedad dividida.
¿Puede una reacio ángel volar más allá de sus límites para salvar su vida, su
amor, y su mundo?
-Ya me lo he leído y reseñando,
pero quiero tenerlo en papel.
Waiting On
Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights
upcoming releases that we´re eagerly anticipating.
The book that I am
waiting is :
Title: Angel On the Ropes
Author: Jill Shlutz
Editorial: Auto Published
Release date in U.S.A: August 8th 2013
Synopsis: An incomparable
trapeze artist who lives to fly is about to hit the ground—hard.
Amandine Sand walks a high wire between two lives—hobbled by a life-threatening secret. She’s a "leopard," one of the spotted humans wrongly accused of being a plague carrier. Leopards like her are hunted by zealots to protect their offworld colony from the scourge. Despite this threat, Amandine spends her days guiding other leopards to an underground shelter run by the pacifist Seekers. At night, with her own spots hidden, she takes to the air, the one place this extraordinary artist feels free and gloriously alive.
When the persecution of leopards explodes into widespread violence, the Seekers demand more of her time. But her circus is teetering toward bankruptcy and desperately needs her, too. She has no time to breathe... and then she meets a stranger who leaves her breathless. And might just be the biggest risk of all. If her trust is misplaced and she’s unmasked, everyone she loves—and everything she’s fought for—could crash.
In her darkest hour, Amandine must draw upon everything she’s learned from the circus and Seekers to bring peace to her fractured society. Can a reluctant angel fly beyond her limits to save her life, her love, and her world?
