This is a book that combines crime, romance, and psychological threads, with an unexpected ending. The love of the main characters was born at the Podklasztorze Hotel!
Art, the play of passion, and the dark secrets of guests in a hotel located within the 12th-century walls of the Cistercian Abbey. Artur, a radio journalist, is assigned to conduct an interview with the beautiful and talented painter Diana Bars. He goes to the monumental abbey where the artist holds workshops. A feeling is born, accompanied by extremely strong emotions.
Love, betrayal, or maybe a crime? What lies in the souls of the characters? Will Anita, a police officer from the local station, find the key to solving the mystery of this couple? Is what we see always the truth? She faces a difficult task, and the finale will completely surprise her.
The author is an active animal rights advocate, involved with the Łódź Animal Welfare Society. She is passionate about classic crime novels, especially the works of Agatha Christie. She creates literature that combines crime, romance, and psychological themes. She believes that writing books is like a journey without a map – "because you never know where the paths of imagination will lead us." "Everyone is a shadow" is Amanda Maria Chudek’s second book; her debut was "Rival."
We thank Ms. Amanda Chudek for bringing Artur and Diana, the main characters, into our world.
