This book is one of my favorite books. I had to read it in the school and I fell in love with his story. The story narrates 2 stories. One of them is about the beautiful love story of Emile and Andreas, but their story finished in tragedy for a curse of two Egyptian sculptures and the other is about 3 kids: Jonas, Annika and David who discovers a key thanks a beetle and discover the mystery about their life and tries to find these sculptures to finish this curse.
This book is very interesting because is locate in a country house in two different periods of time. One of them is located in XVIII century and the other is located in nowadays. On the other hand David is playing a game of chess with a woman called Julia Jason Andelius who is the owner of the country house and who heard the story through David, and she tries to help them telling him things of the past.
In the end of the story, the three kids discover a lot of things about Andreas and Emile, and form different opinions about the couple. David wins the game chess and discovers that Julia dies a lot of time ago and she left him the chess and a message. On the other hand they only find one of the two cursed sculptures and they found a golden beetle instead of the sculpture.
In my opinion the writer managed to catch the attention and the interest of the reader so I think that is one of the common characteristics of every writer. So, Maria Gripe obtains a victory with me. I love her literature; the way that she writes is very likely. I think that one of their goals is writing for all people not only adults, for children and teenagers too.
The main lesson of this book is that loves transcend even the death.
