Synopsis
Christine Snow, a successful Chicago therapist, sets out to find her vanished lover, the sultry and elusive travel photographer Taylor Hayes. Forging a trail that leads into the heart of Morocco, Seven Moves tracks Christine's gradual recognition that no one can ever really know another's soul. Bearing Anshaw's trademark style -funny, hip, and laser-sharp -this is "a tightly told tale that resists the bookmark as well as any thriller" (Chicago Sun-Times). A Reader's Guide is now available.

Review
This second novel from Carol Anshaw, author of Aquamarine, describes a desperate search for a lover who has simply disappeared one morning without a trace, and a gnawing fear that perhaps the lover was not really known at all. Chris is a therapist in a stable and strong lesbian relationship with Taylor, a travel photographer and a free spirit who has occasionally been unfaithful. When Chris awakens to find Taylor gone she cannot accept either suicide or abandonment as explanations. She hires a cop, a private investigator, and a psychic and goes looking for Taylor, a journey in time and place, across the world, and back through memory. The pursuit becomes an investigation of what we can know about another.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Chris, a psychologist, and her girlfriend Taylor, a travel photographer, enjoy their life of urban domesticity - the two women share a house, a dog and a life until one day, out of the blue, Taylor vanishes. As her anger turns to alarm, Chris is left desperately following clues through friends. A random discovery sees her visions of kidnap and abduction re-shape themselves into more familiar fears as she finds herself confronting a side to Taylor she never knew was there. Following a trail that leads to Morocco and home again, this book powerfully tracks Chris's gradual recognition that no one can ever truly know another person's soul.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
