About this audiobook

In the Roaring Twenties, sassy photographer Alexandra Bathenbrook sets off from Montana to chase adventure in the world’s most exotic corners. From the jungles of Papua to the highlands of Albania, her camera captures cannibals, killer lions, kings—history itself. High society quirks aside, her intrepid career earns her international fame. Yet, despite the wonderful nonsense of the era, Alexandra comes to learn that life’s most dangerous escapades are not found in the untamed wilderness; they lurk within the demons of her own past and a diabolic prophesied future.
