Best-selling author Joanne Pence releases Ancient Echoes and other works in Audiobook Format
Hello, dear Audiobooks fans! As you may already know, I am a big fan of mysteries, thrillers and secrets, so you can imagine that I was thrilled when I found out that a new best-selling and award-winning author decided to bring her great stories to life in audiobook format. Ancient Echoes is the first book in the Ancient Secrets Series, and after listening to it long into the night I can say that I will be very glad to post a review about it when I’m done, but until then I thought to let you all know about this one, and a few others being available as audiobooks.
From her page on Audible, we find out that Joanne Pence is the award-winning, USA Today best-selling author of two mystery series, the very long-running Angie Amalfi mysteries, and the new Rebecca Mayfield mysteries. She has also written historical fiction, contemporary romance, romantic suspense, a fantasy, and suspense. She hopes you’ll enjoy her stories as they present a variety of times, places and reading experiences from mysterious to thrilling, emotional, to lightly humorous, as well as powerful tales of times long past.
Ancient Echoes is a very interesting book and we learn a few plot lines from the Publisher’s Summary:
Past and present collide in this spellbinding tale by USA Today best-selling author Joanne Pence.
Over 200 years ago, a covert expedition shadowing Lewis and Clark disappeared into the wilderness of central Idaho. Now, seven anthropology students and their professor vanish in the same area. The key to finding them lies in an ancient secret, one involving alchemy, gold, and immortality…a secret that men throughout history have sought to unveil.
Michael Rempart is a brilliant archeologist whose colorful and controversial career has earned him admiring fans and implacable foes, but he is plagued by a troubling sense of the supernatural and a mysterious spiritual intuitiveness. Joining Rempart in this adventure are a CIA consultant on paranormal phenomena, a washed-up local sheriff, and a former scholar of Egyptology. All must overcome their personal demons as they attempt to save the students and, ultimately, the world.
From the journal of Francis Masterson, 1806 –
All hope is gone. Evil is victorious.
In the time I have remaining I will, herewith, impart a tale so filled with Dread and Terror that my heart overflows with immeasurable Sorrow to tell it. It began with the highest of Good Will and Promise and, on my part, great Excitement. I can only trust to Providence that one day this small account which I leave in a land of unimaginable desolation and Wildness, may be discovered and that it will serve to warn others of the wickedness that may ensnare Good men.
Ours was to be a Secret Expedition…
Ancient Echoes is a Top 10 Idaho Book Award Winner. The audiobook version of Ancient Echoes is over 12 hours in duration and it is performed by voice over artist Tim Page.
