Identical twins. Poles apart. Light and Shadow. Saffron and Sage. Their Destinies interlocked in a Quest that will determine the fate of Humankind ... Seventeen-year-old Saffron Woods is haunted by strange voices as if from a distant past. With the SEED's sentience awakened, these mystical voices intensify, forcing Saffron to acknowledge that she has also inherited its legacy of dark secrets, intrigue and death. Venturing out alone, Saffron is driven to locate an ancient manuscript charting the location of the only undiscovered Wonder of the Ancient World, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, gateway to the Garden of Eden. But last seen in the Library of Alexandria, the SCROLL is long thought to be lost. Saffron meets Finn, the compelling caretaker of Satis House who appears to know more than he is willing to reveal. Knowing she cannot trust him, Saffron is drawn to this rebellious figure who seems to both threaten and protect her. But her feelings for Finn are complicated by the charming yet inscrutable Anakim, Gabriel Chevalier, who offers her his invaluable assistance in locating the elusive manuscript. Torn between competing passions and facing an increasingly implacable enemy, the Grigori, Saffron struggles to find the SCROLL which holds the secrets to the past and the key to the future... A brilliant new adult paranormal romance with action, suspense and supernatural fantasy. SCROLL is the second book in this gripping new epic adventure series sure to appeal to young adults and crossover fiction readers who enjoy an assured blend of romance, fantasy and history. Keepers of Genesis series (SEED, SCROLL, SWORD and STONE) should appeal to readers of Veronica Roth, Becca Fitzpatrick, Cassandra Clare, Lauren Kate, The Twilight saga, Deborah Harkness, and to fans of Indiana Jones, National Treasure, The Mummy or of Lara Croft's adventures. Praise for The Keepers of Genesis series: 'You know that thrill when you discover an author whose every word draws you in and you cannot put the book down?

Renaita D'Silva author of The Forgotten Daughter 'It is just brilliant. I'm rarely left speechless about a book... I laughed and cried at this book. It is beautifully written and Nielsen is a wonderful author with such a vivid imagination.' EV Goddard englishbibliophile.blogspot.co.uk 'I stayed up until very very late one night reading this novel. Very difficult to put down once you're immersed, the pages just keep on turning... This author knows how to weave a spell with words, how to pull you into the world she's created and make it real.' H Chim 'As an avid reader/writer I'm fairly particular about certain genres, but Seed has it all; Angels, Nephilim, Religion, History, language, Romance & Suspense. ... if you're looking for an accurate, romantic, addictive read, buy Seed now!
