Synopsis

The BookTok beloved Taking of Persephone series continues in Demeter, with more romance and myth from the point of view of the goddess of the harvest.
 
Demeter's life is a delicate balance, tending to her crops while raising her spirited and curious child Kore. She yearns for Kore to tread the path she has carefully laid, but fate and Kore herself have different plans, and mother and daughter soon find themselves at the cruel mercy of Zeus.
 
Just as Demeter is poised to reveal a life-shattering secret to Kore, she awakens to find that her beloved daughter has vanished.
 
Gripped by sorrow and anguish, Demeter embarks on her own quest to find Kore. For so long, the goddess of the harvest has kept to her tasks in the mortal world, kept her divine head down, and sheltered her daughter from the storms of Olympus. Can she face the past, disrupt her meticulously crafted existence, and venture into the chaos that threatens to consume the world?
 
Myth made her into a villain, but Demeter has her own story to tell.

He kept his vast fortune hidden somewhere on his estate in the south of England and died suddenly, without telling anyone where he had concealed it.

It doesn't take long for a bevy of opportunists to flock to the estate under the guise of offering condolences. Tressa knows what they're really up to. She'll have to work with the rough and rusticated vineyard manager to keep the laborers content without pay and discover the key to finding her father's fortune--before someone else finds it first. Award-winning author Joanna Davidson Politano welcomes readers to Trevelyan Castle, home of the poorest heiress in Victorian England, for a treasure hunt they'll not soon forget.
