Key of Knowledge
In the second installment of Nora Roberts' thrilling Key series, Dana Steele is forced to face her past with the handsome Jordan Hawke when he writes a book that connects him to her quest for the Key of Knowledge. Now, Dana must seek out the truth from among deception and lies -- or succumb to her worst nightmares.
Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Fantasy, Fiction, Romance. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.
