THE SECRET PRICE OF HISTORY is a
tale-in the present and the past-about the selfless and the
greedy. An enigmatic treasure
hunt marred by violence over the
centuries is the link between a modern–day detective story concerning Angie
Cebrelli, a young American TV weather girl, and
the gripping political and social upheaval of the second half of
the 1800s as faced by
Eleonora Serlupi, a rebellious Roman woman (Angie’s ancestor) and her two
best friends, Sandor and Goffredo, part of
the idealistic generation who fought for
liberty and country in the Italian Risorgimento and the American
Civil War.
In this website we would like to share with you something more about the amazing historical figures who make their appearance in the part of our novel set in the 1800s. We were both born with a 'historical spoon in our mouth' as it were. Gayle has family ties both to Gettysburg and to Italy, while Paolo is of Piedmontese origin and the descendant of an Italian Guard in Napoleon's army.
