Product Description

Synopsis

A finely-crafted, engrossing debut that will delight and satisfy fans of "The Da Vinci Code." Anne Le Clair, a successful, young attorney, has managed to remain free from her family's gothic past - until now. When she inherits her murdered Aunt's antique necklace, however, she finds no escape from its secrets. Anne is immersed in a crash course of forbidden wisdom, secret societies and her family's own legacy. She soon discovers that her aunt's necklace is just one of six powerful "keys" that, when combined with the other five at the appointed time, unlocks the legendary Hall of Records. "Under The Stone Paw" is a thrill ride from the upper crust of New York society to the forbidden tunnels underneath the Sphinx; from a time before Jesus and Mary Magdalene sought to free humanity, to our own time when a shadowy consortium of powerful individuals threaten to control it.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Exciting Adventure into the Arcane! 14 April 2006
By Jeanne S. Dunn - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
If you are drawn to ancient teachings, the land of Egypt, or just a plain ol' great adventure, this book will draw you in, entertain and provoke a lot of thought along the way. The author obviously draws on her own experiences, study and research to convey a story that is esoterically rich. It is filled with well-drawn characters, sometimes larger than life and sometimes all too human, but always compelling.

Having never been to Egypt, I was particularly impressed with Crater's ability to take me there, from the chaos of the Cairo market to the past life recollection of a Karnak that no longer exists. I could feel it and smell it and hear it, and UNDER THE STONE PAW only makes me want to go there more than ever. This knack of being able to truly transport the reader is a gift for which I have particular admiration.

UNDER THE STONE PAW is an excellent read, and I found myself thinking it would make a terrific movie, to the point that I was actually casting it. Engaging, enjoyable and enlightening, I highly recommend this novel to anybody looking for a good read and an astral journey to amazing places!

5.0 out of 5 stars More than a Novel 16 Mar 2006
By Jan P. Dunn - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
"Under The Stone Paw" is a rich, exciting novel about Egypt which I found hard to put down. Crater's protagonists are Anne Le Clair, a wealthy heiress from a royal bloodline, and Michael Levy, an attractive Jewish Egyptologist, member of a secret metaphysical group. When each finds that the other owns a mysterious ancient necklace, they become involved in a thrilling race to keep these artifacts out of the hands of a powerful society that wants to use the necklaces for nefarious purposes. While the story is engaging, one of the most fascinating parts of the novel is the ancient indigenous wisdom teachings which Crater weaves into the story. I would love to see this novel made into a movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars What A Wonderful Story 15 Mar 2006
By Erin Hume - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Having spent 25 plus years reading non-fiction and fiction on the "holy blood lines", I find Theresa's novel intriguing, refreshing and a delighgtful yet thought provoking escape. She managed to bring into view many interesting historical people and events generating from the ever present Illuminati, Masons, Rosacrucians, and much more. I've already recommended this book to several friends and family and hope Theresa continues to write!

Sincerely,

Erin Hume
