What the River Knows

In "What the River Knows," a historical fantasy by Isabel Ibañez, Bolivian-Argentinian Inez Olivera navigates the upper echelons of nineteenth-century Buenos Aires while grappling with the loss of her globetrotting parents and a newfound inheritance. Journeying to Cairo with a sketch pad and a mysterious golden ring tied to her family's past, Inez uncovers layers of old-world magic and deception as she seeks the truth behind her parents' deaths. As she encounters her guardian's charmingly frustrating assistant, she must harness ancient magic to protect herself from becoming a pawn in a deadly game. This captivating tale is the first installment in the Secrets of the Nile duology.
