Product Description

The pleasure of your company is desired for cocktails and conversation. 8pm, 4th September. Warrior's Peak. You are the Key. The lock awaits. When Malory Price is issued with the above invitation she is naturally suspicious, especially as Warrior's Peak is a local mansion house straight out of a Hollywood horror movie. But with her overdraft at crisis limit and on the verge of losing her job at a local art gallery, she has little to lose by attending the event. But Malory is about to get more than she bargained for. At Warrior's Peak she finds that she and two other women are the only guests of their mysterious hosts. They are told an amazing story of magic, gods and goddesses; and of three demi-goddesses who have been cast into an eternal sleep, their mortal souls placed under lock and key. And in every generation, three women are born who alone have the power to free them - if they are prepared to accept the challenge. Three women. Three keys to find. If one fails, they all lose. If they all succeed - money, power and a new destiny awaits. It will take more than intellect, more than determination. They will have to open their hearts, their minds, and believe that everything and anything is possible.

Excellent read!
Three women (Malory, Dana, and Zoe) are invited to cocktails in the oldmansion at Warrior's Peak. A mysterious couple tell a tale of three lovelydemigoddesses who rest in an enchanted sleep, their souls locked in aspecial box. The box has three locks on the front that can only beunlocked by three hidden keys. Each key must be found by a differentmortal woman. Each woman has a single month to locate their key. The keysmust be hunted one at a time. If even one woman fails at her task, thelocked souls will be destroyed and each of the three huntresses will loseone year of life. Fate chooses Malory Price to search first.
Malory Price has always been organized. She even had her life completelyoutlined since the age of eight. Malory was manager of The Gallery andloved the position. However, the owner recently acquired a much youngerbride, Pamela, who decided to oust Malory and take over.
The mysterious couple gave Malory twenty-five thousand much neededdollars, just for agreeing to search for a key that might not even exist.If the keys do exist, and all three of the women find them, they will eachreceive five million dollars!
Flynn Hennessy met Malory when his huge dog knocked her down. Malory hopednever to see him again, yet had no choice since he was the brother ofDana. Flynn joined the quest in the hope of getting closer to Malory. Henever expected to fall in love with her or to watch an evil sorcerer tryto kill her!
***** I can only hope that books two and three will be equally asfascinating! Nora Roberts has succeeded in literally bringing a fairy taleto life, in more ways than one. This story is set in present day with asubtle dose of magic. Highly recommended reading! *****

Key of Light
A truely amazing story. This is the first book in the Key trilogy. Its a great introduction into the lifes of the 8 main characters.
This book concentrates on Malory Price and her quest to find the Key of Light.
If your a Nora Roberts fan this is a must read, also if you have an interest in mystery and the world of gods and goddesses.
The story itself is one of the best i've read in a while, i couldn't put it down.
I'm looking forward to the next in the series "Key of Valour".

great read!
like the reader above i too bought the book just because of the name of the author. ive read loads of her work and have as yet to be disappointed with her work. this book is great - i highly recommend it. as good as any of the other great trilogies and roberts has crafted some excellent characters - some of her best yet. the plot is thrilling exciting and sexy with just enough of realism to keep it on, what could be, a wayward track. i just know that Key of Knowledge is going to be amazing and i cant wait to read it!!!
yet again amazing work - just how does she do it?!
