Used book – The Parallel Worlds, Volume 2: The Harlequin, John Twelve Hanks, Maryvonne Ssossé

With The Traveler, John Twelve Hawks plunged us into a surveillance society run by an unscrupulous group whose goal was to annihilate the last bastion of free individuals: the Travelers. Among them, Michael and Gabriel Corrigan, who are destined to be separated: one chooses to join the dominant group while the other decides to fight, protected by the Harlequin Maya.

Until one day, astonishing news reaches them: their father, a Traveler like Gabriel, is reportedly still alive and somewhere in Europe. Gabriel and Maya immediately leave New York hoping to find him, while Michael seeks to eliminate his father, who threatens his newly established power.

A breathtaking race that takes the reader from London to Berlin, passing through Rome and a remote region of Africa. As the story hurtles towards its Dantean conclusion, Maya finds herself facing a dramatic choice: is she prepared to sacrifice everything to save Gabriel?

The Harlequin is a breathtaking novel that reconnects with the settings and characters of The Traveler, the first volume in this trilogy haunted by the vision of a world where freedom is constantly threatened.
