by Marie Corelli
Armand Gervase has it all. He is a famous artist, his paintings hang in national galleries and are celebrated around the world. His most famous painting, depicting an attractive Egyptian woman about to kill her lover, is known for its instant, historical details, but Armand has no experience with Egypt's ancient past. or is it him? Rejecting the idea of heaven and hell, spirit and spirit, Armand embraces a life of decadence that gives him the freedom to act as he pleases until he meets the seductive and hypnotic Princess Zisca. Haunted with strange and distant memories, Armand tries to solve his mystery, but discovers that his memories of him are hundreds of years old – and he looks horribly similar to the woman in his famous painting. How can this be? Did he fall in love with a ghost, or is there something more sinister hiding behind Ziska's hypnotic eyes? A supernatural story of reincarnation, seduction and revenge, Ziska was among the bestsellers when it was first published.
