“A wonderful treat . . . Masello [is] a master entertainer unafraid to pull out all the stops.”—Chicago Tribune Benvenuto Cellini, master artisan of Renaissance Italy, once crafted a beautiful amulet prized for its unimaginable power—and untold menace. Now the quest to recover this legendary artifact depends upon one man: David Franco, a brilliant but skeptical young scholar at Chicago’s world-renowned Newberry Library. What begins as a simple investigation spirals into a tale of dangerous intrigue, as Franco races from the châteaux of France to the palazzos of Rome in a desperate search for the ultimate treasure—and an answer to a riddle that has puzzled mankind since the beginning of time. Aided by a beautiful young Florentine harboring dark secrets, pursued by deadly assassins, and battling demons of his own, Franco must ultimately confront an evil greater than anything conjured in his worst nightmares. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Robert Masello's The Romanov Cross. Praise for The Medusa Amulet “Fascinating . . . an unpredictable and exhilarating journey . . . [Robert] Masello expertly blends contemporary thrills with a historical spin.”—Associated Press “In addition to its taut story, there is an impressive amount of scholarship, and enough detail to please art lovers or history buffs. Great writing and rich detail combine for a gripping read.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Engrossing and fun.”—Library Journal

En el siglo XVI, Benvenuto Cellini fue el maestro artesano de la Italia del Renacimiento: orfebre, escultor, nigromante y creador de un amuleto tallado con esmero que en su tiempo fue la preciada posesión de papas y príncipes, reinas y conquistadores. Una obra de inimaginable poder... y peligro. David Franco es un joven y escéptico erudito que trabaja para la biblioteca Newberry de Chicago, tratando de recuperar una reliquia legendaria y dilucidar sus secretos. Pero su investigación pronto se convierte en una trepidante aventura, una carrera contrarreloj desde Chicago hasta los castillos franceses y desde la Revolución Francesa a los palacios romanos, buscando la respuesta a un enigma que ha intrigado a la humanidad desde el principio de los tiempos. Franco se verá atrapado en una lucha a vida o muerte, perseguido por letales asesinos y por sus propios demonios, y enfrentado a un mal que desborda sus peores pesadillas. Un nuevo thriller escalofriante de Robert Masello, autor del best seller Sangre y hielo.

Dreams. They're only dreams. Strange, brutal dreams, straight off the pages of an ancient Greek mythology book. That’s what Mandy Burkhardt tells herself, stocking shelves at the Occult Bookstore in Chicago. Her boss senses more. He feels something. An awakening. The prophecy. The others can, too, even if they can't quite put a finger on it. As the hidden power inside of her grows, an ancient spell comes to life, compelling her back to her rightful time and place: ancient Greece, a barbaric era of witches and gods, gorgons and oracles. Witnessed by new friend, Ryan Taylor, Mandy's disappearances can no longer be denied. Together, they try to discover what’s happening to her and why but in the process become targets in a deadly and sinister plot. Caged, trussed, shackled and hunted, Mandy must come to terms with her past and fight for her future in a bloody battle with even more at stake than she knows.
