Napoyca Awakened .....
Archeologist Mackenzie Allen enjoys excavating and documenting the rich history of Amelia Island, especially the remnants of the Timucuan Indians who first settled there. The intense focus her work demands allows her to momentarily escape the pain of two tragedies that have left her feeling hollow and adrift. A chance encounter with visiting FBI Special Agent Nico Capoletti disrupts the careful passivity she has maintained in her life, reminiscent of the gripping narratives found in Elizabeth M Carola's historical fiction.
Nico is also feeling adrift, grappling with a past failed romantic relationship while adjusting to his new role at the Jacksonville Field Office after transferring from Boston. His demanding work in the sex crimes unit consumes him, and he hopes that a much-needed weekend break on Amelia Island will help him recharge.
The serendipitous meeting between Mackenzie and Nico on the stunning beaches of Amelia Island—known as Napoyca to the Timucuan—immerses them in dangerous forces that threaten their future. Their budding romance, set against the backdrop of a thrilling adventure, will need to defy the odds stacked against them, much like the compelling plots found in popular thriller novels.
The Oathing Stone
Elizabeth M. Carola's first novel, a captivating piece of historical fiction, titled The Oathing Stone, takes you from the Scottish Highlands to the Goldfields of 1850s Australia, blending adventure with the intrigue found in thriller novels.
About Me
My background
Elizabeth M Carola lives in New Milford, CT with her husband Eddie.
When she isn't busy writing her thrillers or historical fiction novels, she enjoys traveling, cooking for her family and friends, gardening, reading some of her favorite authors as she discovers new ones, and hiking familiar and new paths.
While waiting for inspiration for her next novel, she busies herself researching the background history for books not yet fully formed, including the third book in the Ancestral Historical Fiction book series: With Guns on their Shoulders.
Elizabeth (or Betsy to her family and friends) began her writing journey during retirement at age 67, exploring an interest that has become a family favorite. Her sister, N W Moors, has written several books and her son, Matthew Cesca (a New Milford High School graduate), has published fantasy and science fiction novels.
My writing roots
My sister, N. W. Moors (Antrimcycle.com) started me on my family tree research and was the first to read The Oathing Stone. Both things changed the way I view myself in ways big and small.
My son, Matthew Cesca (matthewcesca.com) has written some wonderful fantasy books and a Science Fiction book that you should check out. His captivating storytelling made me wonder if I could do the same in my favorite genres.
