Reseña del libro "Curse of the Cache (en Inglés)"
"It had happened again. He woke up in a cold sweat. The nightmare had returned. The nightmare of hands reaching out to clutch him, hands coming from a grave, hands that seemed to transcend the tombstone, the tombstone whose name could not be read. He tried to run but the hands came after him, clutching him, threatening to stop him. He woke just as he fell while hurtling over a headstone, the wind knocked out of him, turning behind him to find the hands ever nearer, coming closer, determined to catch him. Mike Matthews sat up in bed. He woke with a gasp, sweat pouring from his forehead, and his heart pounding in his chest. His breath came in short sharp stabs. Why, why did he always have this dream? Why did it come upon him, haunting him, making him afraid at times to fall asleep?And lately it had been worse, it had come more often. It used to only come upon him once or twice a year, since he was fifteen years old. But it was coming more frequently, and always it seemed after he had fallen, after he had given in to the temptation of the uncontrollable urge.Mike was a thief. No one was aware of it, because he was very good at covering his tracks. No one knew when there was a theft of jewelry, that it was he who took it. And always it was a green stone. He could resist any other kind of gem; pearls, diamonds, costume jewelry, silver, or gold. But something about the color green, particularly emeralds, always caught his eye, and he found himself reaching out with shaking hands to take it."Mike Matthews is haunted by a dream and a curse that threaten to ruin his existence. Until one wild night when he and his brother and their friend discover a mysterious cavern where they find themselves hurtled back in time and encounter a smuggler, pirates, and other nefarious characters who uncover a past that creates as many questions as answers...From L. M. Roth, author of The Quest For the Kingdom series, Adventures of Abelard series, and The Princess Who...series, comes a thrilling tale of time travel that evokes a haunting atmosphere and unfolds mysterious revelations in a spine-tingling adventure on a quest for truth.
